Bizzy Lizzy is a British children's TV series from the 1960s. Bizzy Lizzy is a little girl whose dress has a magic flower. When she touches it, her wishes come true – but if she makes more than four wishes in a day, all her previous wishes are undone.[1] Her first wish each day is to make her Eskimo doll, Little Mo, come to life.

Watch with Mother co-producer Maria Bird narrated the 'Bizzy Lizzy' stories.

Bizzy Lizzy stories originally formed part of the Watch with Mother's Picture Book series in the early 1960s, before getting her 13-part series in 1967.[2][3]

The comic Pippin featured regular Bizzy Lizzy adventures from 1967 onwards.
