Not for kids its intended for.

My nephew is 2 years old, this show teaches nothing. Maybe about sharing but no counting, no ABC's, just a bunch of nonsense about magical little girls. I would say it's a show for children 10 and up where they can just sit and watch it for the entertainment it provides. It's kind of like SpongeBob.... You watch it, but it doesn't actually benefit you.

What's the Story?

LITTLE CHARMERS is the story of three young friends -- Hazel (voiced by Addison Holley), Posie (Matilda Gilbert), and Lavender (Alexa Torrington) -- who team up to solve problems with their budding magical abilities. From rescuing frog princes to unlocking the secret behind a magical outfit, these three charmers-in-the-making learn that even when things don't work out right the first time (and they often don't), there's no problem that friendship and a little creativity can't solve.

Is It Any Good?

Our review:
Parents say (9 ):
Kids say (10 ):

This series is as charming as its title suggests, thanks in large part to the cute main characters and their comical mishaps. Magical talents aside, they're much like the preschool girls to whom the show is geared: well-intentioned, eager to help, and always brimming with ideas. But, just as in the real world, Hazel, Lavender, and Posie learn very quickly that solving problems usually isn't a one-step process.

Kids will enjoy the fun challenges the girls must face in Little Charmers, and parents will be happy to see that every story is rich in examples of characters with strong self-esteem and the perseverance to see tasks through. Along the way are frequent reminders that learning and growing are lengthy processes that require patience and occasionally call for the help of someone who's been there, such as a parent.
