This two-hour program block features three half-hour educational series in combination with various short-form educational elements. The latter include "Find Out Why" (physical science shorts produced in association with the National Science Foundation, "Great Minds...Think For Themselves" (American history segments voiced by Robin Williams), "What's My Name?" (facts about interesting figures in world history), "What's The Diff?" (game segments that teach visual discrimination and analytical skills), "Let's Go!" (geography and cultural information segments" and "Flyndiggery Do: Where'd It Go?" (short segments describing animal behavior.)
"Disney's Recess" (2 episodes weekly) is a collection of animated stories about six fourth-grade children who attend public school. These children are an ethnically and gender-diverse group. Their experiences at Third Street School deliver messages about problems common to middle childhood: conflicts with authority figures, school and family rules, issues of fairness, peer pressure and coping with disappointment. A number of episodes revolve around class bullies, or "teacher's pets." Series episodes provide opportunities for parent/child discussions about values.
"Disney's The Weekenders" introduces four twelve-year-olds who have been friends since kindergarten. They attend middle school in southern California and spend time together on weekends. Their family circumstances are diverse: Tino is the only son of a single mother; Carver is the middle child in an affluent African-American family; Tish comes from an Eastern European immigrant family and Lor is the only girl among fourteen sports-minded brothers. Stories explore topics such as parent/child relations, sibling rivalry, acculturation, competition vs. compromise, responsibility, honesty, peeer acceptance and loyalty.
"Lloyd in Space" is the story of an alien boy who attends middle school in a galaxy far away. His mother, Nora, is the commander of the space station in Intrepidville, where Lloyd, his six-year-old sister Francine and his three buddies, Eddie, Kurt and Douglas, live. Nora is a single parent. Many of the stories are set at school and involve peer and friendship issues as well as school rules, procedures and authority conflicts. Episodes are designed to teach values, problem-solving, responsibility (as in a story about Lloyd's babysitting his younger sister, who runs away when he becomes overbearing, and several stories about taking responsibility for pets), and goal setting.

Pepper Ann is the daughter of a single working mother. She loves math and science and hopes to some day make a name for herself in biology or medicine. Pepper Ann and her Hazlenut Middle School friends demonstrate individuality, problem solving, perseverence, responsibility and creativity. While the primary educational focus of the series is building self-esteem - particularly that of girls - stories also break down gender and ethnic stereotypes and broaden the definition of "family."

"Disney's Teacher's Pet" - via a magical transformation, nine-year-old Leonard Helperman's dog "Spot" discovers that he is able to talk and walk upright. He siezes the opportunity to fulfill a lifelong ambition: to go to school. Dressed in some of Leonard's clothes, Sport becomes "Scott Leadready," reveling in the challenge of learning fourth-grade spelling, math and history. The fourth-grade teacher, Mrs. Helperman, is Leonard's mother. She is also a single parent. This series is built around the privilege of being able to attend school and the value of education. Stories teach honesty, cooperation, peer team work, problem solving, respect for rules - particularly in the school setting - and empathy. "Spot/Scott's" extraordinarily wide vocabulary introduces children to new vocabulary and its meaning in context.
