Blue Cow (cartoon) facts for kids

Blue Cow is a unique animated character. She is a curious blue cow created by Blue-Zoo. You might have seen her in the BBC children's television series called The Story Makers. This popular show was mainly broadcast on CBeebies. It also appeared on BBC Two.

Meet Blue Cow

Blue Cow is not like other cows. She lives in a green field with black and white cows. But Blue Cow is special because she is blue! She is also very curious. She always wonders about things happening outside her field. Each episode, she has a new question.

Blue Cow's Big Questions

Blue Cow's main goal is to find answers. She wants to know about the world beyond her field. For example, she might wonder how a train works. Or she might ask about clouds in the sky. Her questions are always about everyday things.

Her Amazing Journeys

The other cows in the field do not believe Blue Cow. When she starts wondering, they often say, "She's off again." But Blue Cow does not let that stop her. She then hops onto a bright red double decker bus. This special bus takes her on an adventure. It carries her to places where she can find the answers to her questions. She learns many new and exciting things on her trips.

What the Other Cows Think

At the end of each episode, Blue Cow returns to her field. She tells the other cows all about her day. She shares what she saw and learned. But the black and white cows still do not believe her stories. They usually say, "Everyone knows cows can't..." and then describe what Blue Cow did.

The Narrator's Message

After the other cows express their disbelief, the narrator steps in. The narrator often says, "But we know they can, don't we?". This part reminds viewers that Blue Cow's adventures are real. It encourages children to believe in imagination. It also shows that it is good to be curious.
