What Parents Need to Know

About Jacob Two-Two

Parents need to know that Jacob is a relatable character for kids who come from large families and might feel like they get picked on. Although there's a lot of name calling and sibling rivalry in this show, the messages about honesty, standing up for yourself, and overcoming obstacles make this a fine pick.

    Arthur-rip off.

    I rate this title iffy for age 2 and give it 1.0

    NOT for mature kids-- you're better off watching LazyTown!!!

    Once again, meet one of the Qubo block's most ugliest characters. Also wins a prize (in MY book) for the ugliest minor characters. The educational value is low. You learn social values that most people learned years ago. It's like making a 5th grade TV series on How to Use the Loo.
