Children's cartoons

I know this isn't what you asked, but I have tried watching "Plaza Sesamo" on TV (Spanish version of Sesame Street). I have found it more difficult to follow than the Noticias that are also easy to find........

To find Dora in Spanish, look for "Dora la Exploradora" and I also add "espanol" to some of my searches.

Disney also sells the Cars movie in Spanish on the Disney website.

I don't know what kind to channels you watch in your TV.
But if you've the opportunity to watch Ozie Boo.

That cartoon is about an color penguins and just that cartoon is very pretty.

I have been practicing by listening to Spanish shows for kids from "TVE a la CARTA". They have a section for kids shows that is mostly animated. No subtitles usually if that is what you are after. I would post a link but... I'm always afraid of doing so in this place. Google should take you there pretty easily.

@Tarential: you've proven you're an honest member of the forums. You can post links, as long you follow the Forum Rules and they're not advertising.



By the way, Phineas & Ferb is a very funny cartoon that can be seen dubbed in Spanish in Youtube:

Oh good. Well it certainly isn't spam. In fact, not only am I not affiliated with them, but as far as I can tell they don't have any advertisements on their website. The URL is:

I'm still not able to hear, comprehend, translate, and understand enough words fast enough while watching the shows to actually figure out the plot, but usually the pictures are enough in that respect For now I've given up trying to translate the words at that speed and am simply improving my ability to pick up individual words I recognize out of the speech.

It's good because the children's shows are easier to understand inclusive in the English, the words are basic and they haven't a lot of technicality in the same words.

I'm use to the children's channel for the mornings when the first show TV is spoken in English mostly the words are easy to understand and as the shows are only for children the people speak slowly sometimes.
