what it is.
The show.
An animated special based on Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler's beloved picture book, about a friendly witch who keeps making room on her broom for new animal friends, until the broom can take no more. Aimed at ages 3–7.
our take
“Room on the Broom is a beautiful example of kindness rewarded — the witch's generosity toward strangers is modeled without preachiness, and her friends return the favor when she needs help. The pacing is gentle, the rhyming dialogue supports language development, and the animation is warm and expressive. A treat for the whole family.”
