Our granddaughter, eating Upsy Daisy; 5 Apr 2014.
Upsy Daisy is one of the puppets in a BBC programme for young children – In the Night Garden. Other characters include Iggle Piggle, the Ninky Nonk, Makka Pakka and the Haahoos.
We find this wonderfully simple and calming TV, and I especially like the bit where, at the end of each programme, Iggle Piggle gets into his boat and, with a light on the prow, sets off across the sea as he goes to sleep.
D700 with 105mm Nikkor; 12,800 ISO; Dfine 2; Silver Efex Pro 2, starting at the Warm Tone Paper preset.

Children’s programmes are great. When I visit the little man he watches a show called (I think) ‘Show Me, Show Me’. I love the songs 🙂

Thank you! Such programmes can be entertaining – and also calming and relaxing, taking our minds off things. Another one I like is The WotWots – give it a try! A 🙂

Great stuff, thank you! Oh, and in a bar up north, a strident yankee accent cut clean through a bar of Midlanders chatting – quite refreshing to hear in a way! A

I like the idea of getting on a boat and leaving the world behind to go to sleep. I know one person in particular who would really benefit from doing that. 🙂

And who’s the person … you??? You ought to have a look at these programmes. They are of course for toddlers, but they have a calm and simply purity which is very appealing – and the sequence at the end of each programme, with the boat making off out to sea, is simply wonderful. A 🙂

No not me, I very seldom have a problem sleeping, just as well with my topsy-turvy working hours, although staying awake is quite often my problem, it’s Hubby who finds it difficult to turn off and relax. Maybe I’ll get him to watch a program or two. 🙂

I am deeply envious of your lack of problems sleeping – you lucky, lucky person! 🙂
