Big & Small is a British/Canadian children's television series aimed at preschoolers. Big & Small is a co-production between Kindle Entertainment and 3J's Productions produced in association with the BBC, Treehouse TV, and Studio 100. The first series was deemed a success worldwide and a second series was commissioned by the BBC. The show is a live action comedy for preschoolers, and follows the lives of puppets. Big & Small Online, a section of CBeebies Online, won a Children's BAFTA in 2009 for the best interactive content.
The show starts off with the characters doing many things, such as playing a game, or making something. There is then a conflict between the characters that leads to the plot of the episode. The characters then resolve their conflict before the end of the episode. There is always at least one song in each show, which is filmed in shadowmation.
In the United Kingdom, Big & Small is shown on BBC1, BBC2, and CBeebies, and is shown on Cyw in Wales.Treehouse TV features the show in Canada, while Big & Small may broadcast in the United States on Nick Jr. as Big & Small. In total, over 40 channels worldwide feature the show.
