You and Me NZ (with Suzy Cato)

Ages 2–5

New Zealand accent Revival of classic show Te reo Māori

Channel info

Run by: A 2025/2026 YouTube revival of a classic 1990s New Zealand preschool show, hosted by Suzy Cato and backed by NZ On Air, a government funding body.

Why we picked it: Genuinely slow-paced, conversational counter-programming to fast-cut algorithm content, filmed partly in real NZ preschools and including te reo Māori.

A Fun Day

A good starting point — the channel has plenty more if your child likes this.

Did you know? The original You and Me first aired in New Zealand in 1993 and ran for over 2,000 episodes before this 2025/2026 YouTube revival brought it back for a new generation.
