Löwenzahn (1981– )

"Löwenzahn" is one of the top programs of German children's TV. It is a kind of science-comedy, with main character Peter (who lives in an old caravan) investigating a different problem every episode (for example: 'where does smoke come from', of 'how does a car work', etc.). This could be kinda boring, but it is not, since the 'educational' bits are lightened up comedy bits, that always prove a point. They usually have to do with Peter's neighbor, who thinks he is right, and with Peter proving him wrong. I haven't seen the show for a while, but it is still on every morning. Watch it if you can, it is funny as well as useful.
