I think kids, pre schoolers, just like looking at interesting visuals and colours and this seems to have just that. I really liked it but more importantly so did my two year old

Look's great! It seems to be aimed at a more sophisticated audience audience than pre-schoolers. Things need to be a lot less ambiguous to get across to that age-range. Direct is the key.

Thanks for the comment.
Pre-school audiences are sophisticated. I feel that in the last 5-10 years there has been a distinct over simplification of pre-school programming. I've been animating/directing for 22years, 16 or so of those pre-school animated series. This clip is a promotional teaser trailer for industry insiders rather than an actual episode; as such it is a collection of scenes rather than a storyline. Direct, yes; but only if that doesn't mean simplistic and patronising.
