hi. help please?

I don't know where else to post this.

I was presented with a group of little toys that I think are used on fingers to tell a story. I could be wrong,

so, I am posting a pic of said toys and hopefully someone know 1. what they are? 2. what kind of story they tell?



So, what does this has to do with learning Russian? well, the person that gave them to me has been recently in Moscu for a scientific conference. That is all. And maybe, if they do  tell a story, it will be a traditional one...but that is just me hoping they do mean something..

Thanks.

does anyone know of a site where russian tv programs are available to watch? i saw one for cartoons around here, but i'm thinking more live action tv shows.

specifically, one called 'все смешалось в доме' of which i have seen clips: it's about my level of comprehension and the plot looks cheesy and therefore easy to understand. if anyone knows where i can see some of that, let me know.

thanks.
