I used to watch these with my oldest son before he started school, he's 37 this year - also Hickory House, Rainbow and others which I'm sure he'd remember but I can't remember the names of - I do remember Hartley Hare.
When I was little in the fifties it was Watch With Mother every afternoon:
Monday - Picture Book
Tuesday - Andy Pandy
Wednesday - Bill & Ben
Thursday - Rag Tag & Bobtail
Friday - The Woodentops.

I remember throwing a strop because sometimes they'd take The Woodentops off and replace it with horse racing.
And after Watch With Mother there sometimes used to be a keep fit programme on for the mums!

Could never get my head round the fact that Roobarb was yellow and Custard was pink.

Inverse logic, Sue.

I watched these programmes too, as well as Tales Of The Riverbank featuring Hammy The Hamster. Incidentally, I used to think Andy Pandy was a girl.

OMG! Had completely forgotten about Hammy the hamster....

Andy Pandy was a bit ambiguous, must admit, very sweet looking. Doesn't really matter that much when you're a toddler though...

The lady who made Andy Pandy used her son as a model. He was a toddler at the time and is now an expert on the Antiques Roadshow called Paul Atterbury.
