Top Ten Most Useless Educational Children's Shows
It teaches Spanish, but the words are so bland and repetitive. All they teach you is how to count to 10 and other basic stuff that almost everyone already knows. Characters also aren't good either. The show features a little girl and monkey going on adventures WITHOUT THEIR PARENTS. The main "villain" is Swiper, a dumb fox who tries to steal their things in every episode.
Every episode is repetitive and the cartoon barely teaches anything that kids don't already know except a couple of Spanish words but they might as well use Rosetta Stone because they won't get too far with the language if they try and use this as a main source. I don't know if this or the one where she's a teenager is worse.
I HATE THIS SHOW It's SO STUPID! At first I thought this was a computer game but no its about a retarded four year old girl going on stupid adventures BY HERSELF with her monkey named boots when I has four when I used to watch the show I liked but now I THINK It's SO RETARDED AND LAME! Like seriously Dora: WHERES THE MOUNTAIN? Me: Right next to you Dora: WHERES THE MOUNTAIN? Me: RIGHT OVER THERE YOU RETARD Dora: THERE IT IS! Me: Thank god so yeah if you want something that will teach and entertain your kids please do not watch this show watch something else like PAW Patrol Or Miraitchi And Clulutchi TRUST ME ITS TEN TIMES BETTER THAN THIS RETARDED SHOW
People try to defend the show saying it teaches Spanish. It only shows like what... 5% of Spanish per episode. Even if it showed more 2 year olds wouldn't even notice the educational bits.
I don't even see any educational value in Teletubbies. All the show is about is four Teletubbies who do nothing but eat and play under a sun that has a baby for a face. On the bright side, at least it's not as bad as Barney and Friends and Dora the Explorer. Still, Teletubbies sucks.
The spin-off Teletubbies Everywhere (2002) was supposed to be the educational show. Teletubbies Everywhere shorter episodes - Funny games, playing with numbers, naming and simple logic.
Oh people whine that there's no education, conflict. Maybe the Teletubbies is better for relaxation.
Teletubbies, that show you thought was about space aliens trying to invite your brain...
Its difficult to believe this was made by the people who made Teletubbies who had more of a life and could say words "Run Away, Big Hug, Again Again" This is like a dumbed down Teletubbies or its for very young babies. But there's nothing satanic in it that's stupid as Christians who called Teletubbies satan.
This show is supposed to promote fitness, but my best friend from high school disagreed because these creatures are fat. Plus, the show looks like it was made on drugs.
Has no educational purpose what-so-ever. Also a minor satanic ritual is preformed in every single one of the 104 episodes of this show.
This is Obviously a Teletubbies family member, its not as bad as Teletubbies, but this is way too babyish
Why isn't this number one? This show basically teaches you that if you whine for what you want, then you'll get it. I have a friend that wasn't allowed to watch Caillou when he was little because his parents didn't want him to turn into a little brat like Caillou.
The only thing this teaches you is to whine and you will get what you want. I used to watch this when I was younger but now I think it is stupid.
The white Little Bill except Bill wasn't a whiny little snot. Also why is Caillou bald but Rosie (his baby sister) has a full head of hair?
Duh Caillou is a whiny baby and he is stupid. Plus he never changes an age and he is four years-old forever also has cancer
This show should not be here. I was a child back when Barney was a brand new show and it was very beneficial to my learning. So few of the people who even use this site were even alive during this show's prime years so where is this judgement coming from? Even during it's later years the show was beneficial to children's learning. Don't just follow the crowd when you vote on this list. Vote against a show that WAS actually useless like 'Yo Gabba Gabba' or something.
Does anyone even remember anything good of educational value that came out of this stupid live-action kids show atrocity?
Barney smiles way too much and if anyone does this all the time in certain situations that's bad
If it was only Seasons 9 or 10-14 then yes. The older seasons are actually underrated.
It teaches kids to kidnap wild animals.
Same situation with Dora
Better than Dora 10% better
*deletes (all) your minecraft worlds* Without this AMAZING kids show, my childhood would be ruined
Lol, this is what I watched.
This show is probably even more useless than Dora. It teaches NOTHING WHATSOEVER. Just how to count along (which I'm sure the children watching this already know how to do) with the characters being unrealistically dumb.
Never turn a cartoon icon like Mickey Mouse into a useless educational program.
Maybe younger kids who haven't learnt how to count. Around the age of three.
Whoever turned my boi Mickey Mouse into a toddler's show? Where's the R18 version of Mickey Mouse?
I remember briefly watching this as a kid. The DJ guy was pretty cool, everything else was just... well... you tell me.
I literally don't understand anything about this show.
It's basically Barney and Friends 2.0.
What No... I loved this show as a kid :0
This thing is worse than Dora The Explorer
This show can be so annoying sometimes. For example, they repeat plot lines that might have been already done before. Also, do the characters have to always say bark BEFORE THEY DECIDE TO TALK NORMALLY?
This show is so stupid. The last time I saw an episode, the mayor and her stupid chicken were on a plane with a girl and their plane needed to b repaired. The girl got her sleeve stuck, and didn’t even think to rip it off with her other hand, ask the mayor for something sharp, or anything like that. Th mayor called the paw patrol instead. It’s not an emergency, so just handle it yourself.
This is probably one of the most overrated preschool shows out there.
This show is targeted to preschoolers. The characters themselves are preschoolers, yet they're learning stuff that 4th-5th graders learn.
Ugly characters
Peppa abuses her father all the time and calls him names.She moans and whines non stop and even though it was my favourite show it's not educational towards children
She abuses her father on a regular basis and moans and whines non stop.Although this is one of my favourite shows its not educational towards children
Peppa Pig is NOT educational, in fact Peppa doesn't teach kids ANYTHING, except she has a lot to learn.
The animation sucks and an episode was BANNED in Australia
It used to be a classic, but like many shows, they've moved on to CGI, and it's just not the same anymore.
Bob the builder can we fix it? Bob the builder yes we can! I only rember this part of the theme song.
Dangerous. Scary show.
The show is targeted to children 3 to 5 years old. The goal is to "inspire preschoolers’ natural curiosity about math and help them develop new skills and strategies for solving problems creatively in their daily lives. In keeping with the math theme, the animation is presented as if it were drawn on graph paper. ...read more.
This actually kinda touches down on fractions.
I've never even heard of this show lol.
Who on earth had watched The Who Said That episode. Daffy Duck taught a swear word that sounded like a rubber ducky.
I like Baby Sylvester
Have Drax the Destroyer (Guardians of the Galaxy) destroy this hideous creature
What the hell?
Welcome to creepy retro shows.
Lol, looks creepy
The message is good but the plot is super repetitive and the singing voices are really annoying.
Who would keep a duck as a pet?
I loved this one as a kiddo!
Corny name, ugly hair, cheesy music, this show sucks!
I know the name of the show is Little Einsteins, but trying to teach world culture and the arts to little kids is a bit TOO COMPLICATED, don't you think?! I know it's trying to be useful, but it's actually rather useless if the show is on a more advanced level than what little kids watch for an educational television program!
Let your kids become know-it-alls! I researched them and they're just fine! Why!

I love the theme song
Easily the most useless. I could see a little kid being entertained by Dora or Barney, but this is the worst of the preschool lot.
It does teach you about friendship but the problem is that they just do one thing their entire lives.
It's stupid. Now my siblings think that Shetland ponies are "supposed to be pink".
"If a show claims that it teaches freindship then it actually doesn't teach you anything at all." - me
This show ruined the original VeggieTales by making everything more childish. Bob acts like a child, Larry is Modern SpongeBob and they replaced my favorite character with a Squidward ripoff. They barely even talk about God anymore!
