Is Dave the Barbarian safe for children?

This animated comedy series is set in the Middle Ages and follows the title character, Dave, in his comedic adventures with his family (his sisters, Candy and Fang) as they protect themselves and their family from a world of oddball foes. Dave himself combines strength with an appreciation of the finer things in life, including origami, bird watching, and even gourmet cooking.

Standard animated comedy pacing with typical action sequences and dialogue speed, suitable for older toddlers but potentially overstimulating for infants and younger toddlers.
