Numberjacks

Numberjacks is a great program to use to help children learn basic math concepts. Each topic is discussed thoroughly, in simple language and with enough repetition that a small child will easily understand and come away from the episode having learned something.

The animation holds up surprisingly well, though some character design choices can be a bit creepy for those who aren't used to them.

The characters all have unique personalities, and they go through changes as the series progresses. It was very satisfying to me, as a child, watching Three grow up and be able to complete missions on her own.

Parents will also enjoy the witty writing and good humour. I recommend this show speficially to parents with children aged three to seven.

I loved watching it when I was little. It helped me with numbers and early maths skills, but the meanies can be scary, even the Numbertaker. The villain I mostly liked was Spooky Spoon because she was quite funny, even when she mixes things up. My family didn't know that Numberjack One became a meme where she is referred to as "Beanos". I really liked the bit in the episode one more time when one was making things one more, and then six scolds her for what she did after being bought home and she said sorry. I also remember the episode where Zero was out and about making things disappear, and then six chases him around until he makes himself disappear.

Loved this show as a kid. Always helped me with math and stuff like that. But the reason I came here is to notice 3 and 4's friendship ain't really friendly. Also the puzzler and numbertaker be lookin hella fresh :O

Numberjacks showcases how much effort can be put into a kids show. It is consistently entertaining with amazing villains (the Numbertaker scared me as a child) and protagonists with some pretty good traits. I loved it as a small child and it is still great as a teenager.

There is a bunch of weird stuff but kids won't really notice and it makes interesting viewing otherwise.

Educationally, Numberjacks does a pretty good job of teaching kids maths concepts and logic while keeping them engaged. These things being the solution to the problems the Numberjacks are facing is great way to prove these are useful and promote problem solving. Overall, this one of (if not the) best kids show I have seen.

The good points are my daughter loves it and it does provide rudimentary lessons in maths and allied subjects. It's not the most polished production, but appears to entertain well, although would seem a bit repetitive (just watch the hour long marathons on the programmes official YouTube channel!) Younger viewers may be put off by some of the enemies in the show, the two that are the most unusual are the Number Taker, who dresses like an Albino Mad Hatter, but has the menace (albeit silent) of the Child Catcher from Chitty Chitty Bang Bang; and the Puzzler, who is a CGI floating bald bearded head with glasses who sounds & looks like what you may imagine an internet groomer to look like and has a laugh that is a bang on impression of Sid James from the 'Carry On' films! Honourable mentions to the Problem Blob, who spews 'Kids TV gameshow green goo' everywhere and to see has to regurgitate his eye on a stalk through his mouth; Spooky Spoon, who is a Margo Leadbetter style posh talking, well, spoon..; and the Shape Japer, which is an even more basic CGI cobe/sphere (alternating) with sharp teeth and evil eyes!
