Pingu

Average user rating

This delightful series stars Pingu, a little penguin who is very mischievous and playful. He lives in an igloo in the Antarctic with his Mum, Dad and sister called Pinga.

The characters communicate with expressive sounds and noises, and no actual spoken language is used at all. This makes it extremely easy for young children, or any who don't have English as a first language, to understand and follow the stories. Trials of childhood are explored such as potty training, eating your peas, tidying up and sibling rivalry.

Pingu has lots of exciting adventures with his best friends, Pingo and Robbie the seal. In a fun, lively way, they explore the issues of children's friendships and lives. The penguin and seal go to school together. They are mischievous and daring, like young children. Like little children, they sometimes get into trouble or squabble, but all is always made up and each episode ends happily.
