I have a 2.5 year old son, and he loves this show. Unlike other shows that have many quick scene changes and flashing colors (which is like cocaine to young children, addicting and low yielding), Stillwater is very slow paced and gentle. My son asks for it every day and I can tell he's learning from it. He says and does things that I know he saw from the show like saying "let's race!" and throwing leaves into a stream. Besides for kids, this isn't a bad show for parents either. There are two animation styles in each episode which are both well done. Stillwater himself would be a perfect neighbor.
