* Face and Piper O'Possum from Creator/NickJr

* Jimmy Giggle of ''Series/GiggleAndHoot''

* Sean, the host of ''Series/NoodleAndDoodle''
* Carly and TJ from ''Series/SproutHouse''

* ''WesternAnimation/MooseAndZee'': The titular duo are both Under Sixes hosts, but Moose has a more calm temperament compared to [[Creator/NickJr Face and Piper O'Possum]]. Zee, on the other hand, [[CuteMute doesn't speak at all]], and she's meant to be an AudienceSurrogate for the preschool audience.

* From ''Series/SesameStreet'', Murray, who functioned as a presenter in his own right in Seasons 40-45.
** In a more fictional example, we have Elmo. Well, being three-years-old, it's no surprise.

* This was the exact reason they promoted Bart to co-anchor of "[[XtremeKoolLetterz Kidz Newz]]" to Lisa's chagrin on that episode of ''TheSimpsons'' -- he had "zazz" (exact wording, too).

* Amy Mainzer from the interstitial segments of ''WesternAnimation/ReadyJetGo''

* Timmy Mallett on ''The Wide Awake Club''. In addition to being unable to talk in anything other than a manic shout, his gimmick included hitting kids with a large foam-rubber mallet.

* From ''Series/SesameStreet'', Murray, Elmo, and Big Bird in the Journey to Ernie segments.

* The old International Playhouse Disney format featured presenters that border towards this type. for example, Big Dave, Little Alex, Jason and Sara-Louise (and later, Olivia) on the UK feed.

* The hosts of the Spanish and Portuguese language versions of "Series/ArtAttack''.

** Likewise Krusty the Clown is one of these in his TV persona but his real personality is that of a drinking, gambling, money grubber who seems to actually find most kids annoying.

* Not an intentional parody, but Charlotte Ritchie is routinely mocked for inadvertently coming across as one of these on her series of ''Series/Taskmaster''.

* From ''Series/SesameStreet'', Murray and Elmo.

* ''{{Newsround}}'' "Text in and tell us whether you think David Cameron should be Prime Minister!" is a bit like Type 3.
* Though they fit into type 1, Nina from ''Nina and the Neurons'' and Maddie Moate from ''Maddie's Do You Know?'' on CBeebies present science shows - both informative and entertaining for children. These shows are presumably aimed at under-sixes, but older children and adults alike can learn something new from these shows, too.

* ''MrWizard''

** [[PunctuatedForEmphasis So. Many. Wiggles-alikes.]] In Scotland, we have The Singing Kettle, although they predate the Wiggles by about ten years.

** And then Jimmy Giggle came along...
