The Upside Down Show

The Upside Down ShowMadison's new favorite show of all time is The Upside Down Show. It is on Noggin and stars Shane and David. Each show is about a place or a thing that they have never done before. They also encourage the at home (aff) viewers to use their imaginary remote to control what is going on. As an adult, I find this show very corny. On the other hand, Bill sits there and giggles with Madison. After the show is over, Madison walks around trying to control things with her remote. It is amazing,but there are a ton of learning goals supported by The Upside Down Show:
