Martha Speaks

Imagine if Mr. Roger's neighborhood was animated? Well, that's just what this new animated series is, except all of the kids from the original show, are now grown up.

A look at animals in their natural habitats also explores key scientific concepts that the animals' actions and behaviors exemplify.

With the help of his friend the Man in the Yellow Hat, a curious little monkey named George sets out on adventures to learn about the world.

Full of boundless energy, Malik, Zadie, and Zeke run, bounce, roll, and romp, always on the lookout for interesting Treeborhood problems to solve. Malik is thoughtful, considerate, and sometimes set in his ways (which can be a good thing when you're problem-solving). His speedy, adventurous younger sister, Zadie, is a brainstormer extraordinaire, with ideas that range from silly to very smart. Zeke is the youngest-a funny, curious cuddle-bug who loves to play and explore. Super, their grandmother, is the Superintendent and unofficial "Mayor" of the Treeborhood-the de facto heart and soul of the place. In each story, the Wombats demonstrate computational thinking for preschoolers, learning as they go. Their aspirations will sometimes exceed their proficiency. But, eventually they'll stop, take a breath, put their heads together and figure out a fix-using the design process, sequencing, debugging, and other key elements of computational thinking. From a crazy campout being unfun, to a job with the smallest tasks ever to be done, to a problem with a broken down fireworks-making machine, there are so many problem the Wombats can solve.

The series focused on the exploits of two siblings, Emmy and Max, in possession of an enchanted dragon scale capable of transporting them to a whimsical fantasy land inhabited by colorful anthropomorphic dragons upon their recitation of a rhyme. Befriended by four friendly talking dragons with distinctive personalities, Ord, Cassie, Zak, and Wheezie, they frequently travel to Dragon Land and help their friends in fulfilling particular quests, assisting them in their daily problems, and learning important morals through their experiences with the educational whimsy of Dragon Land.

Chris and Martin Kratt meet their friend Zoboomafoo (a talking Sifaka Lemur from Madagascar) at the Animal Junction, a place where various other animals like to come and hang out. Together they introduce young viewers to the animal world through songs, video clips, and several forms of animation. 'Zoboo' also tells stories about his imaginary world of 'Zobooland', and a little girl named Jackie and the "Animal Helpers" provide short reports on ways people interact with animals. Through education, this upbeat show encourages kids to "Make an animal friend today!"
