Classical music for your little one
Introduce your child to famous classical music pieces in this friendly exploration of the orchestra for CBeebies fans.
Paired with recognisable characters from CBeebies shows and with plenty of jokes and laughs, this digital performance is a fantastic way to share a new experience with your child.
If needed, the streamed performance on iPlayer has a pause button, so your child can take it at their own pace.
Bring their bedtime teddy
You don't need to be at the Royal Albert Hall to enjoy the show! Cosy up on the sofa as the nights draw in and watch the CBeebies Prom with your family.
Encourage your child to cuddle up with their favourite teddy, as the audience at the Royal Albert Hall on screen will be doing the same!
Make it an immersive experience by encouraging your child to join in with the pantomime call-and-answer sections.
We recommend wearing pyjamas, curling up with blankets and a warm drink to make the screening as cosy as possible, to help your child wind down for bed.
