To my distinct horror, Modhesh is quite popular with both the 2.5 yr old DS and the 7 month DS. 2.5 yr old also likes Shaun the Sheep and Mowgli (from Disney's Jungle Book film) and Remy the Rat (from Disney's Ratatouille fim) and Paddington and Mog Cat.

Until what age are you thinking about? My son who was 8 last year became completely obsessed with WWE Smackdown which is not exactly a cartoon but seem to be targetting kids with toys and collecting cards and T-shirts. Ben 10 is soooo 2008 and Bakugan was 2009 :-). The girls, who are smaller: All the Barbie princess films (Mermaid, Three Musketeers, Diamond Castle) and Barbie Fairytopia. And the smallest girl also loves Handy Manny.

DS - 2 y 8 m 1st love was Barney 2nd Dora the Explorer along with Tom and Jerry 3rd was Mickey Mouse & Co. (but terribly afraid of 'live' cartoons) He is now into Scooby Doo and Garfield but still likes the previous ones. Winnie the Poo, Ben 10 and Sponge Bob are mentioned every now and again. He also likes the 'short' cartoons a lot like Purple & Brown, Spider & Fly Primo and so on as he is now cearly showing his sense of humour. In my country mostly watches Panda Channel. Maybe visiting shops for kids can help to find out what are the most sold items (by which cartoon) and staff usually have an idea of even what items sell most with which nationalities. good luck with your paper. <em>edited by Marydots on 20/01/2011</em>
