CBeebies Playtime (Compilation) [DVD]

Product Information

On Wednesday 2nd August 2017, the Freeview TV guide was updated to create more space for new services. As a result of this update, some channels, including CBeebies & CBeebies HD and CBBC & CBBC HD have moved to new numbers. Whilst the stories are no longer be interactive, children can still snuggle up and watch the stories as videos, either independently or with a grown up.

Your iPad’s ringer mute switch may be activated, in which case you just need to switch to unmute so that the red indicator is no longer visible – you can find it on the side of your iPad. This new version of the app has also been made so that we can update it easily, this means we can continue to make it fresh, exciting and even better in the future for you and your child! Every time you play a game, it gets added to the Playtime Island treasure chest. When you're offline go here to see all the games you can play without an internet connection. Whilst the stories are no longer interactive, children can still snuggle up and watch the stories as videos, either independently or with a grown up.It’s a great way to keep little ones entertained without having to worry about a WiFi connection or data allowance.

A new settings feature allows you to reduce the amount of space Playtime Island takes up on your device by removing games that haven’t been played in a while. The app benefits from certain interactions that desktop devices can’t deliver, such as the use of tilt and using the microphone output. BBC iPlayer is changing and in some places you or your child will need a BBC account to watch TV shows.You can listen to well known children's stories read by a selection of special guests. Choose from stories narrated by Olly Murs, Dolly Parton, Tom Hardy, George Ezra and Jodie Whittaker - and now classic fairytales with Maddie Moate. We store usage data in our logs. This helps us to understand user behaviour and where there are problems, or areas for improvement. Go Explore’s ‘Your Mindful Garden’ has been reimagined with CBeebies Love Monster with new, calming activities. Love Monster is a popular pre-school character who is always learning more about the world around him. We believe by adding this character, we can help further encourage children to learn more about mindfulness and form healthier habits. We understand change can be difficult for children and hope that children will continue to enjoy practising mindful activities with Love Monster.

To update your guide, you will just need to retune your Freeview TV or digital box (some equipment may load the changes automatically). If you're not sure how to do this you can find advice at Freeview.co.ukand from the Freeview advice line on 03456 505050. We will be adding new stories to the app throughout the year and this update means that we can highlight new stories to you easily and let you know when there is something new and exciting to read. In Waffle the Wonder Dog – Don’t Disturb Mrs Hobbs - can you help Waffle to play with George the cat without waking up Mrs Hobbs? Just tap on that CBeebies show character. Then you or your child will be able to see all the art tools associated with that show. Unfortunately it’s not possible for CBeebies presenters or characters to attend charity events or fun days.We cannot send you, or give you permission to use, any images of CBeebies characters for your project. When you open the skill you'll be asked to choose from a game, story or song, choose 'song' then listen to hear two song options. Why are you asking me for my gender? We ask everyone what gender they identify as. You can choose female, male or enter another term of your choosing, there’s also an option if you’d prefer not to say. The Storytime app makes the most of the touch screen and native features of handheld devices, as well as allowing children to read and play ‘on the go’ without the need for WiFi.

All work experience at the BBC has to be arranged centrally. You can get more information on work experience placements by visiting BBC Work Experience. The new and improved CBeebies Storytime has a simple navigation, like the CBeebies Playtime Island app, so children can use the app and find their favourite stories even easier than before. By tapping on your favourite CBeebies show or the CBeebies Bedtime Stories collection you are taken to the stories available, then you simply select 'read to me' or 'read by myself' to choose the story and enjoy! If you are using Apple iOS7, on any of your mobile devices, you may experience some issues with how CBeebies games display.Once activated, all children's skills from the BBC and other content providers can be enabled and used. We always try to balance our online offering so that it includes a range of CBeebies shows that work well online, and appeal to children of different ages and needs. Uploading the many CBeebies Birthdays across a week to the BBC iPlayer is a much more complex process than for full programmes and we found that they were watched by significantly fewer people. All the games in CBeebies Playtime Island are designed to meet the needs of children and their parents, with a focus on learning, bonding, discovery and self-expression. The advantage of using CBeebies Playtime Island is so your little one can shape the app themselves!
