Timmy Time is a television show created by Aardman Animations for the BBC and CBeebies. The show is a spin-off from the Shaun the Sheep television series on CBBC (CBeebies' sister channel), which itself is a spin-off from the Wallace & Gromit series, which introduced the Shaun the Sheep character.
Since this is Aardman's first preschool show (as well as their first show for CBeebies), Timmy Time is sometimes described as CBeebies' answer to Wallace & Gromit.
Plot
In this series, Timmy and his friends have to learn to share, make friends and own up to mistakes. They are supervised by the teachers Harriet the Heron, Osbourne the Owl.
Production
The show is aimed at pre-school-aged children that the company described as "a natural step for Aardman". It aired on Playhouse Disney in the US on September 13, 2010.
The show is made up of ten minute episodes which do not feature any dialogue, much like Shaun the Sheep.
