    Norman's Review

    Constrcution Site is a delightful show featuring construction vehicles and their adventures. The show is inclusive, good character personalites and is highly education. As it teaches children life lessons and the basics about construction and the overall work place. However the show can be boring and repetive at some points but rarely is. Overall I rate it a nine out ten and highly recommend it for children, teens and adults alike.

    Stream these automotive shows and cartoons that are appropriate for young viewers

    There are many entertaining shows on Netflix for adults who love seeing cars in action and learning about how to customize them, but many of these shows are either uninteresting or inappropriate for young viewers. Luckily, the digital streaming service has many titles in its kid-friendly library that will please children who love cartoons and awesome cars. Here are 10 shows currently available on Netflix that you can safely let your toddlers watch.


    Toyota Safety Sense: How this innovative technology keeps your family protected


    1. Tayo: The Little Bus

    A charming show with fun characters, this animated series about city buses teaches young viewers about public transportation and road safety through the adventures of Tayo and his fellow buses. Tayo is new to the city bus system, so he learns a lot of lessons from his mentors, like the double-decker bus Cito. This South Korean show has run for four seasons, and one of them is currently on Netflix (the rest are distributed by Hulu).


    2. Chuggington

    For children who want a contemporary take on the concept of Thomas the Tank Engine, Netflix offers this CGI-animated show that was originally a BBC production. Three locomotives — Koko, Wilson, and Brewster — are railway trainees in the town of Chuggington. Through events that take place around town, the young trains learn how to resolve problems through listening, diligence, non-violence, and truth-telling.


    3. The Adventures of Chuck & Friends

    Both seasons of this American-Canadian animated children’s show are currently on Netflix. The series follows Chuck, a dump truck who aspires to be a race truck. He’s young and often misbehaves, but he learns important lessons on patience, teamwork, practice, telling the truth, and respecting others. The show is co-produced by Hasbro, so you can purchase toys of the main characters if your little ones enjoy the show.


    4. Robocar Poli

    This Korean import was developed by the Hyundai Motor Company as part of its safety awareness campaign. It took half a decade to get this show imported to the U. S., but enough money was put into its animation that it doesn’t look outdated.

    Poli is a police car in Broom’s Town, where mishaps and accidents happen every week. His adventures usually involve his three friends: Robotruck Roy, the firetruck; Robovan Amber, the ambulance; and Robocopter Helly, the helicopter. Together, they form the town’s rescue team and solve whatever problems the town is facing. Each episode culminates with an exciting rescue scene.


    5. DinoTrux

    Photo: Dreamworks/Netflix, Inc.

    A production of DreamWorks — so you know the animation in it is top-notch — DinoTrux is about a prehistoric world inhabited by hybrid dinosaur-construction vehicles called Dinotrux and their mechanical reptile friends, the Reptools. The main characters are typically working together together to overcome problems and thwart the schemes of troublesome gangs.


    6. Power Battle Watch Car

    Photo: Netflix, Inc.

    Another television show co-created by Hyundai, this Asian-stylized series capitalizes on the popularity of arena battle shows like Pokemon and Yu-Gi-Oh!, but this one is about child-friendly miniature cars instead of mysticism.

    In the near future, the world’s preeminent automaker launches a line of miniature cars instilled with the company’s cutting-edge artificial intelligence. The autonomous miniature cars, influenced via the owner’s digital wristwatch, are an instant sensation with children and lead to the formation of a new global sport. Within this high-tech world, four friends and their trusty watch cars aim to win the Hero’s Cup tournament but get pulled into the plot of a nefarious villain intent on controlling all watch cars.


    7. Transformers: Rescue Bots

    Photo: Hasbro Studios

    There have been many iterations of The Transformers over the years, from its original 1980s show to the big-budget live-action adaptations. Not all versions of the show are suitable for young viewers, but this child-friendly cartoon forgoes fighting intergalactic evil in favor of saving human lives. Four young transformers based on emergency vehicles — Heatwave, Chase, Blades, and Boulder — work with a family of emergency responders to protect the people of Griffin Rock, while learning lessons about teamwork and safety along the way.


    8. Buddy Thunderstruck

    Photo: Netflix, Inc.

    This snappy, clever stop-motion animated show is entertaining for children and parents. The show follows the wacky adventures of Buddy Thunderstruck, a talented yet cocky dog who’s the fastest semi-truck racer in the town of Greasepit. As a local celebrity, Buddy has a lot of friends — and enemies — all of which are animals. Each episode consists of two standalone 10-minute adventures that involve the high jinks of Buddy racing his truck, the Rabble Rouser.


    9. West Coast Customs

    Photo: Netflix, Inc.

    This popular repair shop in Burbank built enough of a reputation in after-market and celebrity circles to get its own seven-season show. Each episode features a customization job requested by a brand or celebrity, like Monster drinks, Mark Wahlberg, or LucasArts (you can choose which brands you want your child to see). The episodes are largely G-rated and avoid the language that other docu-shows about cars often have.

    Parovoz Studio will take part in the MIFA international film market this year for the first time. Despite the fact that the studio was founded only in 2014, its projects - the animated series "Papers", "Magic Lantern" and "Be-be-bears" - are actively shown on the air of the "MULT" TV channel.

    Parovoz Animation Studio this year will take part in the MIFA international film market for the first time. Despite the fact that the studio was founded only in 2014, its projects are already actively gaining popularity among Russian viewers. The animated series "Papers", "Magic Lantern" and "Be-be-bears" are shown daily on the TV channel "MULT". In addition, they can be seen in the cinema halls of major Russian cities as part of the "MOOLT in Cinema" project, created by the VGTRK media holding.

    MIFA starts in Annecy, France on June 17th. The film market is completely focused on animated content. Here, buyers select cartoons for their TV channels, Internet platforms and cinemas, studios look for partners for joint production, discuss prospects for cooperation and conclude deals.

    700 specialized companies from 75 countries are invited to participate in the international forum. From Russia, 23 companies will show their projects. In particular, new episodes of the series "Masha and the Bear" and its spin-off "Machines of a Fairy Tale" by "Animakkorod" studio will traditionally be presented. Studio "Kinoatis" - the creator of cartoons about dogs-cosmonauts Belka and Strelka - will present a new series "Planet Ai" at the film market. The Wizart Animation studio is bringing two full-length cartoons about the Snow Queen, the forthcoming film "Sheep and Wolves", as well as a new animated series "Yoko" to the judgment of foreign buyers. In addition, the studios Masterfilm, DA, Soyuzmultfilm, AAStudio, the production center RIKI, the school-studio SHAR and many others will go to France.

    Russia presents its achievements at MIFA for the fourth year in a row. The work of the joint stand of the Russian stand is organized by the Association of Animated Films with the financial support of the Ministry of Culture of the Russian Federation. This year the motto of the Russian delegation is Cool country. Hot Heroes. The design of the stand, printed materials and the whole concept of participation are based on the fact that Russia is a country of contrasts, with a cold climate, but bright and incendiary heroes.

    In parallel with the Annecy Film Market, the Annecy International Animated Film Festival will take place. Its program this year features a record number of Russian works.

    Parovoz Animation Studio was conceived by two creative producers and directors Vadim Volya and Evgeny Golovin. Their first joint projects were the series "Clara, Dora. Crazy Grandmas", "Arkady Parovozov", as well as staging theatrical and musical shows. Later, Anton Smetankin, who previously produced film and television projects, joined the team.

    Currently, the studio is developing and producing several animated series ("Papers", "Mi-Mi-Bears" and "Magic Lantern") for children's TV channels of the VGTRK media holding. The main mission of the Parovoz studio is to create original domestic animation that combines Soviet cartoon traditions and modern technologies.

    The Papers series is a real experiment in Russian animation. In each episode, unusual paper characters - Aristotle the elk and Tik-Tuk woodpecker - investigate a detective story in each episode. The main task of the creators of the cartoon is to involve not only children, but also their parents in the project. So, at the end of each episode, viewers are invited to make paper crafts and practice fine motor skills. A distinctive feature of this series is the combination of a high-quality script, original characters, a high level of musical accompaniment and practical benefits for children.

    how the Bi-2 concert was held in Izhevsk0001

    November 3, 2016 13:09

    Poster

    November 1, the musicians performed on the stage of the Ice Palace with the program The best of.

    Gulnaz Gyrdymova

    On November 1, one of the most spectacular concerts of this year took place in Izhevsk. The Bi-2 group performed on the stage of the Ice Palace. The organizer was the agency "I want a ticket" .

    That evening, thousands of Izhevsk residents gathered at the coldest concert venue in the city. Taking a selfie against the background of a huge Mickey Mouse looming over the arena, the fans huddled closer to each other and to the stage and looked at the set design with interest. There stretched branded cartoon images.

    The musicians arrived in Izhevsk on the eve of the performance, at about 4 pm. Leva posted a photo against the background of St. Michael's Cathedral Photo: Bi-2 archive

    “We will perform our favorite songs, except for one,” the frontmen of the group Leva and Shura immediately warned the fans. As if to confirm their words, spotlights flashed in the huge dark hall. The hall of many thousands held its breath.

    "Revolution", "Hipster", "Fool", "The Last Hero", "Like". .. "B-2" played hit after hit, and the audience barely had time to catch their breath, singing along with familiar words.

    After the concert, the band's fans "hunted" for the track list

    The usual business and worries were left far behind - for some time the hall literally dissolved in music and light, because the band developed a unique light show especially for this program!

    The people of Izhevsk warmed up, pulled off their scarves and unbuttoned their jackets – the huge Ice Palace no longer seemed so cold to them. It was hot on the stage too - after a couple of songs, even the artistic Lyova pulled off his sweater, fooling around and dancing.

    Noisy applause after each song, smiles on the faces of the audience and musicians, and a harmonious chorus of voices to the song "The Colonel" - two hours flew by unnoticed. The musicians performed 23 of the most famous songs, but did not admit what other song should have been performed. Dispersing, the fans shared their guesses with each other - someone dreamed of hearing "Shambhala", and someone - "Happiness", someone - "Rivers of Love".

    We can safely say that "Bi-2" became the voice of several generations - both those who are over fifty and those who are not yet twenty came to the concert Photo: Gulnaz Gyrdimova

    A magical city with a sympathetic audience

    As it turned out, almost a hundred people had a hand in making the show truly fantastic!

    Elena Korepanova

    head of the promotion department of the agency “I want a ticket”

    “We started preparing the stage on the eve of the concert, on the evening of October 31st. Loaders, installers, safety instructors participated. In total, almost 100 people were involved in the organization, including the Ministry of Emergency Situations, the police, the OMON and the State Traffic Inspectorate - I would like to say a huge thank you to all of them. The group itself arrived in Izhevsk by 12:00. It was colder on set than they expected, but they still responded positively to everything.”

    The guys were satisfied with the concert itself - for example, the drummer of "Bi-2", Boris Livshits, said that Izhevsk is a wonderful city with very sympathetic spectators, and Leva and Shura thanked for the excellent concert.

    By the way, after the performance, the musicians went to the Kalashnikov Museum. And a few hours before the concert, an amazing meeting took place - Lyova and Shura ran into two famous artists at once - composer Levon Oganezov and actor Andrei Ankudinov. The musicians posted the photo on social networks.

    Izhevsk residents about the concert

    Despite the fact that the concert died down a couple of days ago, social networks are still full of rave reviews from residents of the city. The performance amazed everyone - both those who came to a rock concert for the first time, and those who visited dozens of similar events.

    Mikhail Bakulev

    presenter of the program "I'll sing right now" on "OUR Radio" in Izhevsk

    – I have been attending Bi-2 concerts regularly since 2002 and try not to miss any of their performances in OUR city. I think it's been 6 times already. I liked the sound, light, scenery, scenography. I think that the show, of course, took place and succeeded. I have been listening to Bi-2 since school, so different periods in my life are connected with the songs of Leva and Shura. In general, this team gives performances at the world level. Therefore, if you want to imagine how rock is played abroad now, then go to their concert. The band must be watched on a large stage and yesterday's performance is a vivid confirmation of this. The only negative is that it is quite cold in the Ice Palace. But that didn't stop me from enjoying the performance to the fullest. I think that the concert was simply enchanting. Probably one of the best this season.

    Alexandra Astrakhantseva

    Izhevsk resident, fan of the group

    - I have known this group for a long time, but I got carried away with it just two years ago - before that I mainly listened to foreign music.
