Timmy Time is a British stop-motion animated children's television series made for the BBC by Aardman Animations. It started broadcasting in the UK on CBeebies on 6 April 2009. The show is a spin-off from the Shaun the Sheep animation, which itself is a spin-off from the Aardman series Wallace & Gromit, which introduced the character of Shaun. The first two series ran for 26 episodes. In the United Kingdom, the show's most recent run began in September 2011 on CBeebies. In Australia, season one commenced in May 2009 on ABC1 and season three started in May 2011 on ABC 4 Kids. The show also broadcast re-runs on Disney Junior the Channel from its launch in 2012, but was pulled off the air in May 2014.
In this series, Timmy and his friends have to learn to share, make friends and accept their mistakes. They are supervised by two teachers, Harriet the Heron and Osbourne the Owl. The show is aimed at pre-school aged children which the company described as "a natural step for Aardman".
The show is made up of ten-minute episodes, which do not feature any dialogue, much like Shaun the Sheep.
A filming of one episode was featured on the Discovery Channel's How It's Made.
