Four large creatures in purple, green, yellow and red earth, with an antenna on their head and a TV screen on their stomach, play carelessly in a meadow with a sun in the shape of a child’s head.

No, this is not some kind of psychedelic dream (although it could be), but a well-known children’s series “Teletubbies” Which one of 1997 when it began airing on television in Britain, it did not take long to become a hit among young viewers, first in its country of origin and then almost all over the world. After all, the series was played on television receivers 120 countries and was transferred to 45 languages.

Obviously, the creation of the “Teletubbies” took a lot of imagination. Yes, their creator Ann Wood for them, he imagined it reached the moon, since he influenced their creation …from astronaut suits.

In fact, in an interview with the BBC, Ann Wood stated that the inspiration for Teletubbies came from 1994. That’s when the channel called her to pitch the idea for a program that would target preschoolers and replace the Playdays show.

Thus, Ann Wood was at this time with him. Andrew Davenport as well as the creator of “Teletubbies” in New York, where they visited the museum Smithsonian Institution in Washington.

It was there that they saw up close real astronaut costumes who walked on the moon a few years ago. Davenport then noticed that the uniforms were reminiscent of baby overalls. It was then that Wood conceived the idea for the Teletubbies, adding an antenna detail that receives a signal and in turn transmits it to a screen in the stomachs of these cute creatures.

Of course, the head-sun is not far behind in terms of originality.
