Big Cook Little Cook

**** out of *****

4/5 9/10

I was surprised on how many bad reviews this show got. Well, in my opinion, I thought it was a great show. It teaches little kids to have some fun and cook with their grown ups and singalong to their favourite songs in the show. Speaking of the songs, they were really catchy and imaginative. There show be more shows like this because very rarely do we see kids cook shows. Big Cook and Little Cook are very funny and always know what to do. My favourite character is Small because he is so funny and joyful. Also, this show encourages children the cook by themselves, without having their parents do everything for them. Overall a fantastic kids cooking show, with brilliant songs and characters and I have to say this is one of the best shows on Cbeebies.

As a mother of two, nothing brings a smile to my face more than seeing my 2 year old son run into the room with the biggest grin on his face at hearing a mere second of the theme tune to Big Cook Little Cook. This show is sweet,though to prevent the risk of children suddenly wanting to prepare their own meal and burn the house down because the oven was hot hot hot it's ideally more for adults to watch with the children since 9 times out of 10 the recipes involve using an oven or the hob.

The characters, Big Cook Ben and Little Cook small, are like-able, the songs are addictive (you wont believe how many times my husband finds himself singing them in his work), and I challenge any adult to not laugh at the "Santa's Elf" style dancing Big Cook Ben does during the Cleaning up song. Though to be perfectly honest my son has pretty much left the room 10 minutes in and I find myself watching it :)

All in all its a cute show and worth giving it a look-see, even if it is for the dancing elf-wannabe!

S'okay really. Manic mini man microflying his mini spoon in a cosmos of alternative gusto reality. My nipper liked it until he reached 6. A bit strange and erm, it was heavily created by Noseybonk. Which says it all really.

It's a cross between Ramsey's Kitchen Nightmare and Rainbow. Minus the swearing.

So "Fly Away" into the kitchen of surreal cookery and a cafe of mysterious childhood figures with a hygiene rating (and menu choice) of 1.

Just watch it OK? xD

Too right they can! They are complete dopes, they are not funny and the more I hear or see them the more I hate them! I am 17 and I like some children's programs to this day for various reasons. There are others, however, that I loath and this is one of them. My argument is (to poorly produced kiddie shows like this) is that you can entertain youngsters and help them learn without being hopelessly dumb! Here's something else that can't excuse this program; according to IMDb, "Big Cook Little Cook" started in 2003! I think it's fair to say that it would be considered dated and hopeless in 1993! Though I wouldn't have guessed this trash was first broadcast that early, I certainly wouldn't have had 2003 in mind at all. Now... over to the stars Ben and Small; if you yourselves are hungry why don't I cook YOU an obnoxious mushroom cake topped with stale eggs?!

This show was the rage back in the day on Ceebebees, I can always remember myself watching it after primary school.

Minus the laughably awfal CGI animation of the intro, this is a show I recommend for kids 6 years and under
