HORSELAND
is an animated series about five girls and two boys who live in
spectacular countryside that houses a farm called Horseland. Each of
these main characters has a special horse whose personality is similar
to its owner's. Horseland and its unique approach of integrating the
personality of the main characters and animals serve to reinforce
prosocial themes. Horseland is also a "coming of age" series in which
viewers experience and learn from the social interactions, hopes,
dreams, and even fears of this group of culturally diverse adolescents.
From this background, the experiences of sharing, caring, compromise,
friendship, respect, and competition emerge to provide the young viewers
with social and emotional guidelines for better understanding many of
the life-lessons they need to learn as they grow and develop. This
program is specifically designed to further the educational and
informational needs of children, has educating and informing children as
a significant purpose, and otherwise meets the definition of Core
Programming as specified in the Commission's rules.
