French children's shows?

I want to get a lot of preschool children's television shows\movies for my daughter; possibly replace her English video collection entirely. She learned to speak English by watching the telly (Dora mostly, Blues Clues, etc) and I wanna see if it will work for a second language. I have the Muzzy, but it only goes so far. Plus, I have them on tapes & I don't have a tape player. What are some French shows for like 2 to 6 year olds? I was thinking maybe I could look on Ebay. And please no grief about relying on the telly to teach her. I've studied French for six years & I still suck at it. This is the only chance my daughter may have to learn this language.

1. Actually I highly encourage that you teach your daughter French at a young age. After puberty it is very tough for a person to learn a language. The only show that I know of that is in French is The Smurfs and there was another one about a purple bear or something I'll get back to you on that
2. Going off the previous answer, Les Schtroumpfs is The Smurfs in French. I love their CDs-they take popular songs and rewrite them with Schtroumpf-y lyrics. You can buy popular movies, like Disney and other animated movies in French, or see if DVDs you already have have a French language option. I like to listen to the Disney soundtracks in French, and you can purchase those online, though it sometimes take a search. The UK and French Amazons and Ebays are good places to look. iTunes has free french language podcasts, but I don't know how many are suitable for kids. You don't need an iPod to listen/watch them, you just need to download iTunes. You might also consider buying holiday songs in French, as your child probably already knows the tunes.
