What's the Big Idea? is a series of excellent P4C stimuli for young children, released in English by CBeebies in 2013.
Hugo and his friends explore questions such as What does being kind actually mean?, Is there ever a time we're not learning? and When does someone become a grown-up?
These short videos and audios are an accessible and fun way to get young children thinking about Hugo's catchphrase question: What do YOU think?
