Studies say that Mister Rogers' Neighborhood is the most educational of children's shows, and it's not clear to see why - it's slow-paced and calm, changing scenes very few times, and Mister Rogers speaks directly to children without talking down to them. He also talks about the differences between reality and fantasy by showing both a realistic neighborhood and The Land of Make Believe, a puppet kingdom inhabited by memorable characters like Daniel Striped Tiger and King Friday XIII.
Given the fact that I was born six years after the show ended and four years after Fred died, I never watched it (though my mom probably did), but I've heard many good things about it and have watched one or two episodes over the years, it's a pretty good show. Nowadays, a bunch of kids throw temper tantrums (myself included, even though I'm 15), so I feel like they deserve to watch this beautiful series.
Overall, Mister Rogers is a much better choice for your kids than Peppa Pig or CoComelon. They'll love it despite its aging quality. Won't you be his neighbor?
