Guess with Jess is a delightful show for children that stimulates their curiosity and imagination. The program is set in a farm where Jess, a cute black and white cat, takes on the role of the host to teach young viewers all sorts of things about the world around us. Jess is not alone; she is joined by her animal friends and together they have fun exploring the farm and discovering new things.

The show is presented in a gentle and friendly manner by Daniel Anthony, who plays the role of postman Pat's son, and Jo Wyatt, who takes on the role of Jess. Together they engage with young children and encourage them to speculate and make guesses about things they see or hear around them.

Each episode's topic is introduced through a letter sent to Jess by a child that contains a question, to which they need the answer. Jess and her friends attempt to find the answer through experiments, observation, and deduction. Often, they are faced with questions that require them to think creatively and work together.

The animation used in Guess with Jess is charming and entertaining, with bright colours and engaging visuals that keep young children interested. There are also many nursery rhymes and songs that are educational and fun, helping young viewers learn important skills such as counting and the alphabet.

The show focuses on promoting curiosity and problem-solving skills in young children. It encourages them to think independently and creatively by posing questions and offering ideas they can test. Jess and her animal friends provide positive reinforcement throughout the show, building the children's self-confidence as they learn.

The cast of characters in Guess with Jess is diverse, ranging from farm animals to insects, all with distinct personalities that make them memorable. Among the cast, Maria Darling lends her voice to Mimi, the butterfly who loves to sing and dance, while Charlie George plays Horace, the hard-working worm who always has a clever idea to contribute.

Overall, Guess with Jess is a show that has consistently proven to encourage inquiry and learning in young children. The show is an excellent tool for both parents and educators alike who want to assist children in developing their knowledge and problem-solving skills. Each episode is engaging, educational and most importantly, buckets of fun. Children are sure to delight in Jess and her friends and continue to learn as they grow because of them.

*Note: In terms of accuracy, the show does not actually star Daniel Anthony or Jo Wyatt as they are voice actors who lent their talents to the show.
