Not all parents delve into the cartoons that the child watches. And vigilant parents think about the benefits and harms of children's content. Let's see what the popular British series for the little ones Peppa Pig represents in this regard.

Negative points that a cartoon can teach

British animated series "Peppa Pig" is popular all over the world. It has been translated into 40 languages, broadcast in almost 200 countries, including Russia (here it is shown by the state children's channel Karusel).

The cartoon tells about a family of pigs: this is Peppa (the main character), her parents (Mom Pig and Dad Pig) and younger brother George. In addition, many other characters appear here (the same pigs and other animals).

Meanwhile, psychologists at Moscow State University included animation in the sensational list of cartoons that are undesirable to show to children (along with Tom and Jerry, Minions, Monster High, Sponge Bob - Square Pants, etc.). According to some experts and parents, "Peppa Pig" contributes to the formation of various undesirable qualities in a child. In this regard, there are a number of negative points in the animation.

A call not to be ashamed of dirt

This sounds already from the first episode called “Puddles”: Peppa goes for a walk and jumps in puddles. Mama Pig does not explain to her that getting into the mud is not good, but simply advises her to wear rubber boots. Then the younger brother joins Peppa. At the end of the series, the whole family of pigs jumps merrily through the puddles and laughs.

The cartoon is condemned for calling not to be ashamed of dirt

Someone might argue that the cartoon is about pigs, for which it is quite natural to bathe in the mud. However, the characters are endowed with human qualities, perform a variety of social roles peculiar to people: they wear clothes, drive cars, go to work, etc. In this regard, a small viewer will not distinguish between animation and reality, he may begin to imitate his favorite characters, their lines of behavior. This is especially true for children under three years of age: in this age group, the chances of copying what children see on the screen double.

Here, for comparison, it is appropriate to recall the Soviet cartoon about the pig Chunya, who was very upset when slovenliness was attributed to him, or the famous poem by V. Mayakovsky “What is good and what is bad”: “This one got into the mud and is glad that the shirt is dirty. / They say about such a person: he is bad, a slob.

Video: "Chunya" (1968)

Peppa Pig characters are constantly drawn to dirt. For example, in one of the series called Perfume, Peppa wants to create her own perfume from flowers. But this aroma seems disgusting to everyone, but when brother George scoops up mud from a puddle, the smell is already delightful. In another episode, the whole family belches together at the dinner table.

"Stupid laugh"

Each episode of Peppa Pig lasts about five minutes, but during this time there may be several episodes of laughter, often stupid and inappropriate. It programs the little viewers. Today, there are often children who behave too noisily, unrestrainedly, literally every few minutes they begin to laugh loudly (sometimes hysterically) for no reason. This behavior is the result of imitation of popular cartoon characters.

The animation shows a lot of laughter, often stupid and inappropriate, and many children begin to imitate the characters - they laugh out loud for no reason

Permissiveness in the upbringing of children

Children in Peppa Pig are allowed literally everything. They can constantly indulge, call adults names, take their things without asking and even spoil them, stay up late, throw a tantrum in the store.

A prime example is the episode where Peppa and George refuse to clean their room. Mom and dad reacted to this completely non-pedagogically - they simply bribed the children. When the reward was in the hands of the young pigs, they again made a mess.

Adults, in turn, do not make remarks to the children, do not read notations, but, on the contrary, often indulge in such behavior, they themselves behave like a child. Not without reason, in the finale of every second series, all the characters fall together on the floor, twitch their arms and legs and again laugh.

The animation discredits the image of the father

In almost every episode of the British cartoon, the head of the family, Daddy Pig, is ridiculed. He is shown as a typical loser: periodically falls, gets stuck somewhere, causing ridicule from others. It all looks like the household doesn't respect Daddy Pig. For example, Peppa openly calls him stupid, stupid, reproaches him for being overweight. At the same time, the mother does not react in any way to the behavior of her daughter.

Experts believe that the animation discredits the image of the father

By the way, Peppa treats his younger brother in the same way - he often jokes, mocks him. Again, no one in the family stops such behavior, it causes only laughter.

Distortion of animal images

The characters of "Peppa Pig" are very peculiar - flat, as if cut out of colored paper (2D graphics). All pigs (family members) have a strange head - with a long nose located closer to the forehead than to the mouth. Such characters can distort an adequate idea of ​​​​animals in a child. After all, the same Peppa does not look like a pig at all: although she is pink and grunts, she looks like a strange unknown animal.

To many adults, cartoon characters seem unaesthetic. It is often difficult to determine what kind of animals they are. This perception is complemented by the primitive vocabulary of the characters.

Experts believe that the unaesthetic characters of "Peppa Pig" distort the child's idea of ​​\u200b\u200banimals

Video review of the negative moments of the cartoon "Peppa Pig"

Is everything so bad

Meanwhile, the British cartoon has many advantages, many psychologists (including foreign ones) evaluate it very positively. In addition, the animation generates a lot of positive feedback on our parent forums:

  1. A clear focus on a specific children's age group - babies 3-4 years old. The series are short, the picture is simple, not overloaded with details, the plots are clear. The characters demonstrate different emotions that a small child learns (joy, resentment, excitement, anger).
  2. The characters are realistic, there are no purely "bad" and "good" characters. Heroes-children resemble ordinary kids on the playground - they smile, laugh, swear, fight, make peace. There are no monsters, no violence in the animation. Character conflicts always end in their reconciliation.
  3. The image of a full-fledged family has been created. Parents show interest in children's activities, all together often visit grandparents. Each series is dedicated to a specific family event: renovation, receiving guests, going out into the countryside, etc.

    The cartoon created the image of a full-fledged family, where adults live in the interests of children

  4. Pig parents are very positive, calm, balanced, never yell at children. For example, the fact that Mother Pig allowed the children to jump in the mud, after putting on boots, speaks of normal parental behavior. After all, it is very important for a child to experience the experience of contact with different textures, natural environments.
  5. A positive image of the kindergarten is drawn, which is important for young viewers who themselves are just starting to attend this institution.

    The cartoon draws a positive image of the kindergarten - it is useful to show it to children who are just starting to go there

  6. Animation contributes to the knowledge of the world around: in addition to pigs, there are many other animal characters. These are rabbits, donkeys, bears, wolves, ponies, zebras, elephants. For example, Mr. Rabbit and Mrs. Cat work together with Daddy Pig in the office. In addition, many things are explained to the kids-spectators, for example, what is an elevator, a metal detector, who is an ophthalmologist, how to care for vegetables, etc.

    The cartoon contributes to the knowledge of the world around, for example, there are many different animals, not only pigs

  7. The cartoon can be viewed in English. There isn't a lot of text here, and it's fairly simple and the pronunciation is clear. Kids can repeat foreign words after the characters.
  8. The actions of the characters are spoken out, which helps the development of children's speech.
  9. Although the animation graphics seem primitive to some, they are understandable to children, they have their own charm. Preschoolers can easily draw characters. The cartoon has a calm color scheme, there are no acid paints, from which it is full of eyes.

Like any cartoon, Peppa Pig should be watched with the baby, commenting on what is happening to him. For example, when the heroes are swimming in the mud, it should be explained: “You won’t behave like that, because it’s not good.” In addition, it is useful to show the child how the animals that are present in the animation actually look.

It is good to let the child compare cartoon pigs and realistic animals.

By the way, in the cartoon there is also a “second layer” for adults. There is a sense of humor in it that the child does not yet understand. For example, this is the image of the Rabbit, who just works everywhere, a series where the guys dressed up as countries (“Madame Gazelle, Russia and China do not let me into the sandbox!”), A series about tolerance in the relationship between pigs and wolves.

…like any children's fairy tale, this cartoon can help a child, through the fantasy world, look into the world of family and social relationships, adapt to everyday situations, teach a child how to interact with others, and even acquire new skills. I suggest that parents pay attention to the plot that is especially attractive for the baby, and clarify what exactly attracted him so much in this series ...

The cartoon has many virtues to become a favorite for children of three four years. It is positive, bright, there are no monsters and other evil characters in it. It is based on family values ​​as well as everyday situations that children of this age face. One way or another, but he helps the child in expanding the repertoire of behavior, in effectively coping with such complex "childish" problems.

Everyone Hey!

My child watches cartoons, now he is really interested in a little other cartoons, such as Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles or Transformers, but at one time, a couple of years ago, he also watched Peppa Pig.

Some consider this cartoon stupid, meaningless, but it seems to me, on the contrary, Peppa Pig is a very instructive cartoon for children, which allows you to instill love for the family, its values ​​and traditions. Although I don’t think at all that the cartoon is drawn beautifully, not at all, it even sometimes seems a little bit “ugly”, but it’s not scary, I let children watch, although there are more attractive cartoons like this.


Country: Great Britain

Can look on the Carousel channel.

And so, Peppa Pig. By the name it seems that she is the main character, but I think this is not so, the main ones are the family of these cute pigs.

Peppa, a sweet girl, mischievous like many other children, loves to play with friends and jump in muddy puddles. She loves her little brother George, who often cries, demanding attention, and he has a favorite dinosaur toy, and in principle he says only one word: a dinosaur, well, a small one.


​​​​​​



Mother Piggy, a well-fed lady who is often at home, seems to be working at home, but as if she goes somewhere, pleasant, sweet, always politely resolves almost any situation in the family.


Dad Pig. The image of the hero is not very optimistic visually, I would not say that for children good example. He is moderately fat, has a big belly and his mustache and beard stick out on his muzzle and it seems careless, as if he just wasn’t shaved. In general, dad is good-natured, often plays with children and often goes to work. In the cartoon, his excess weight is often ridiculed.


They live in this house on the hill.


In general, the children of Peppa and George are rarely alone at home, most often the parents are present at home and participate in family life, and the children are not left to their own devices, as is the case in other cartoons.



They have, in the sense of Peppa and George's grandparents, the same well-fed pigs, but already with gray hair. They come to visit them, give gifts, or go somewhere together, so cute.


Visually, it gives the impression of a close-knit family who are always together, who celebrate various holidays together, go on picnics, or go somewhere on vacation ..




Also, secondary characters in the cartoon are other families, their neighbors, or children's friends from kindergarten, and these are no longer pigs, but elephants, rabbits and chanterelles, bears, etc.


They are also part of a series, but they are always especially not in the foreground, but there were exceptions.


In the cartoon, this shows that you need to be friends with others, play with friends.

They visit each other with guests.

In general, I myself like to watch the Peppa Pig cartoon, in each series they show some interesting story from the life of pigs, but no more, their trips, some kind of holiday, or ordinary everyday life, but in 5-7 minutes (and this is how much one episode goes), in general, the director managed to arouse interest in the cartoon.

In my opinion, the cartoon shows, using the example of relationships in Peppa's family, how to value family traditions and the family as a whole, to be always together, to help each other, to be friends with other children.





I recommend watching this soulful cartoon, but still it’s up to you to decide whether parents allow their children to watch or not, but there is nothing forbidden in Peppa Pig, it seems such a cute cartoon, though with a not very attractive picture, but brightly drawn, and to it you get used to it, and the music is quite cheerful.

Criticism and public perception

Many adult viewers visually dislike the animated series. Too simply drawn, as if painted by a child, there is no single plot, there is no intrigue. But as you watch the cartoon, it begins to attract precisely with its simplicity. The plots are simple, uncomplicated, but interesting for that, they look without tension, easily. There is humor in the cartoon, I like the voice acting.

Among the shortcomings of the animated series, the discrediting of the image of the father is noted. The older Pig has three-week-old stubble, is shown as a stupid, clumsy loser, and even Peppa often calls her dad stupid and fat. According to many parents, the cartoon forms negative models of children's behavior - every 20-30 seconds laughter is sure to sound, and in most cases it is stupid and inappropriate.

Most of the reviews from viewers are extremely favorable.

The cartoon has an unusual art style. In the drawing of characters, it is easy to notice the influence of primitivism. The style seems simple to children, adults usually notice that it is a special simplicity that comes after complexity. Adults love this too.

An unusual approach to dramaturgy is noted. It is customary that any scenario should usually be based on conflict and have a structure of "start-development-climax-denouement". There are almost no conflicts in Peppa Pig, and this magically has almost no effect on watchability. The biggest conflict that can be seen in the cartoon is a conflict with oneself, and it is emphatically not dramatic. For example, Daddy Pig has a tendency to fall asleep after eating - and he tries to fight it.

The cartoon has a therapeutic effect on the psyche. In Peppa Pig, an almost ideal world and an almost ideal family are shown, in which there are virtually no conflicts, everyone loves each other and forgives weaknesses, parents do not scream and do not break down on children. In turn, children love their parents and strive to please them, each member of the family plays its own understandable role, traditional and rigidly fixed, all problems easily turn into jokes. Nothing serious happens in this magical world, because everything is fine there, even perfect - just a balm for the souls of many adults.

The series harmoniously combines recurring and changing elements. There are passages and images that are repeated from series to series. For example, the same screensaver, in which each time the main characters are re-introduced. Or the repetitive scene in which Peppa and George happily jump in a muddy puddle. Or that George is constantly mumbling about dinosaurs. Children rejoice at learning the familiar, while adults enjoy constancy, while each story can learn a lot of new things. This balance of many viewers is simply mesmerizing.
