LOL, Iced in in Kentucky and also willing to give news on kid programming (when do they stop being toddlers?). PBS started a new series this week- same creator as teletubbies but supposed to be more action and movement oriented. I haven't seen it but who could complain about early scifi- grin, supposedly the characters move around like charged atoms.
I am sure I will catch up on it next time I see my nephews, Dee from pbs.org About Boohbah: Boohbah is an exciting new PBS program premiering January 19th. Be sure to check your local listings for Boohbah in your area. Boohbah presents an imagination-stimulating learning environment for children to explore. Each Boohbah episode blasts off with the glowing "Boohball," which streaks in a rainbow ribbon across the sky, spun from nation to nation by children all over the world. The children call each individual Boobah - Humbah, Jingbah, Jumbah, Zing Zing Zingbah and Zumbah - to attention, initiating the characters' simple exercise routine and inviting viewers to follow along. A Storyworld segment follows, featuring a Storypuzzle that the Storypeople - Grandmamma, Grandpappa, Mrs. Lady, Mr. Man, Brother , Sister, Auntie and Little Dog Fido - must solve. Storypuzzles can only be completed with the help of children both on and off the screen, who ensure that every tale comes to a happy resolution. For children 3 to 6 years old. Series Goals: Build self-confidence and independent thinking Hone problem-solving and decision-making skills Encourage children to move, dance and create stories _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
