SCOUTS SAFARI follows the development of 14-year-old Scout Lauer, whose divorced parents have to quickly move Scout from her fathers home in New York City to her mothers home on a game reserve in South Africa. The overarching goal of the series is for our main character, Scout, to model a learning process for the audience that charts her socio-emotional growth as she adjusts to a completely new life in South Africa. By the end of each episode, Scout will have moved from one level of knowledge to a higher level of knowledge or insight. Specific objectives are to show how Scout makes a good transition into her blended family with a stepfather and new brother, makes new friends in a completely different system, understands different religious and cultural belief systems, and defines a place for herself where she feels secure and confident about her future. As the first childrens show actually filmed on location in an African animal reserve, Scouts Safari will expose the audience to factually accurate content about threats to the natural environment and preserving animal species in their natural habitats.

Boys and girls get to show how well they know each other, how effectively they can manage a budget, and how skillfully they can execute a design plan in Trading Spaces: Boys vs. Girls. Each week a boy or girl will be given two days and $5000 dollars to complete a renovation of their partners room. The space might be a bedroom, a recreation room, or a club house, but the designer has to show his or her knowledge of the other persons preferences, hobbies, and lifestyle to come up with a good design. Then, the challenge of balancing the budget and figuring out the renovation process begins. Participants will learn measurement, spatial reasoning, and principles of aesthetic design as they go through the experience. In the end, they will find out if their knowledge and perception of their partner was on or off base.

DARCYS WILD LIFE follows the life of 15-year-old Darcy Fields, the pampered daughter of a top Hollywood movie-star who was plucked out of a life of limos, movie-premiers and world class restaurants to live a no frills life in rural Idaho. Darcys initial resentment gives way to optimism as she makes new friends and becomes a part of the community. The educational goal of the program is for the main character, Darcy, to model the learning process in adjusting to a new environment that is the complete antithesis of her old life. Darcy comes to a deeper understanding of herself, the value of relationships, and the insignificance of material things. This occurs as she adjusts to her new surroundings and a new group of friends who have totally different perspectives on life. Specific objectives are to show Darcy, with her Hollywood mentality, navigating her way through life on a farm and relating to people who have a different outlook on life. The viewer will also learn about the care and treatment of a variety of animals that live on farms or in the wild.

ENDURANCE is an engrossing program that shows the target audience,with typical kids ages 12-16, succeeding at several different physical, intellectual and strategic challenges in order to
win a fabulous travel prize. The audience will be exposed to historical information about great feats of endurance, from Houdinis escape artistry to Sir Edmund Hillarys ascent of Mount Everest. Each of the 12 competitive challenges is a metaphor for one of these feats of endurance. In addition, there are strategic challenges based on ten character traits that are important for success. Contestants must estimate probabilities and beat the odds. Overall, the competition balances luck or fate against personal effort so that the contestants learn to balance intellect with intuition in developing their winning strategy. Narration and interviews during each episode trace the emotional growth and insights of the contestants, with an emphasis on how the experience of protracted competition and teamwork teaches both social skills and life skills for achieving success with your goals.

Tut-en-stein is an animated show featuring the resurrected mummy of an Egyptian boy-king. After the discovery of his tomb, the entire burial chamber with artifacts is brought to a metropolitan museum for a permanent exhibit and scientific research. Tut comes alive shortly after his arrival and connects with Cleo, a teen-age museum intern and her cat Luxor. Each episode teaches the audience about Egyptian history, mythology and belief systems. Because Tuts resurrection is a secret, Cleo has to draw on her knowledge of Egyptology to understand the mummy and his frame of reference. More importantly, she and Tut use the characters, gods, demons, and articles from the tomb to solve the many problems they encounter when Tut forgets the rules of engagement and ventures out into the world on his own.

TIME WARP TRIO consists of three curious boys Fred, Sam and Joe who are transported through time via a mysterious magic book that is presented to Joe by his magician uncle. The Book warps the boys backward or forward in time, before disappearing, to experience extraordinary adventures where they partake in the makings of history as they search for the magical book to return home. When the boys are warped into the future, they come face to face with their own great-granddaughters Freddi, Samantha and Jodie who have also inherited The Book over time. Through their time-travels, the six kids periodically bump into one another and help each other to locate The Book while outsmarting their adversaries so they can warp back home. The show embeds interesting historical facts in a way that blends action, adventure and fun that appeals to a young audience.

DARCYS WILD LIFE follows the life of 15-year-old Darcy Fields, the pampered daughter of a top Hollywood movie-star who was plucked out of a life of limos, movie-premiers and world class restaurants to live a no frills life in rural Idaho. Darcys initial resentment gives way to optimism as she makes new friends and becomes a part of the community. The educational goal of the program is for the main character, Darcy, to model the learning process in adjusting to a new environment that is the complete antithesis of her old life. Darcy comes to a deeper understanding of herself, the value of relationships, and the insignificance of material things. This occurs as she adjusts to her new surroundings and a new group of friends who have totally different perspectives on life. Specific objectives are to show Darcy, with her Hollywood mentality, navigating her way through life on a farm and relating to people who have a different outlook on life. The viewer will also learn about the care and treatment of a variety of animals that live on farms or in the wild.

29 DOWN is the name of the small, chartered plane that carries a group of eleven across the South Pacific for an eco-camping class trip to the desert island of Micronesia. Before they can join the rest of the class for their eco-camping adventure, 29 DWN malfunctions and the pilot/camp counselor has to make an emergency crash landing on a remote island somewhere in the South Pacific. With nothing but their camping gear, a limited supply of resources, and each other, the group tries to come to grips with the situation that challenges them through intelligence and instinct. As they confront the false perceptions they have of themselves and one another, the group realizes that they must learn how to live and work together in order to survive. The show carries a powerful social-emotional message that draws upon the complexities of human behavior and social relationships in which adolescents struggle to define their roles in a social group while learning how to cooperate with one another as they grapple with the challenges that force them to gain awareness of themselves and the harsh reality that faces them.

|

ENDURANCE is an engrossing program that shows the target audience,with typical kids ages 12-16, succeeding at several different physical, intellectual and strategic challenges in order to
win a fabulous travel prize. The audience will be exposed to historical information about great feats of endurance, from Houdinis escape artistry to Sir Edmund Hillarys ascent of Mount Everest. Each of the 12 competitive challenges is a metaphor for one of these feats of endurance. In addition, there are strategic challenges based on ten character traits that are important for success. Contestants must estimate probabilities and beat the odds. Overall, the competition balances luck or fate against personal effort so that the contestants learn to balance intellect with intuition in developing their winning strategy. Narration and interviews during each episode trace the emotional growth and insights of the contestants, with an emphasis on how the experience of protracted competition and teamwork teaches both social skills and life skills for achieving success with your goals.
