Bear In The Big Blue House is a children's programme screened on Channel 5. The music-loving Bear and his friends have proved so popular that the show has beaten The Big Breakfast in the ratings.

These days, no tots' TV programme is complete without a CD-Rom. Bear's Imagine That! is better than most. Just like the programme, it is challenging, imaginative and funny.

Children of four and five particularly will love the interactive storyline, the TV-like graphics and the chance to take part in five activities, from directing a puppet show to creating a musical medley. Younger ones may prefer to watch dad or mum do the mousework. That's fine by me! Trying to catch Tutter the mouse's projectile ice cream kept me amused for most of an afternoon.
