TRADING SPACES: BOYS VS. GIRLS is where 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. Each week a boy or girl is 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 clubhouse; but the designer has to first show his or her knowledge of the other persons preferences, hobbies and lifestyle to come up with a good design. Next, the challenge of balancing the budget and figuring out the renovation process begins. Participants learn measurement, spatial reasoning, and principles of aesthetic design as they go through the experience. In the end, they find out if their knowledge and perception of their partner was on or off base.

STRANGE DAYS AT BLAKE HOLSEY HIGH focuses on a group of five young teens who are students at a very unusual boarding school. Strange phenomena happen at the school, and our kids are members of a science club that decides, with the help of their professor, to figure it all out. The initiator of many of their investigative processes is the newest student to the school, Josie Trent. In exploring the larger mystery of why the phenomena occur, our kids also deal with issues relating to their socio-emotional development. The educational goal of the program is to embed scientific content in a narrative story with strong socio-emotional messages. In each episode, one of the main characters models a learning process that relates to their social competence. Each episode also explores science content that relates to resolving an immediate problem or some aspect of the larger mystery. Specific objectives are to expose the audience to content about the physical sciences, such as black holes, worm holes, vortexes, gravity, electricity, satellite transmissions and radio frequencies. Through the characters experiments, the audience is exposed to the scientific method, hypothesis testing and analysis of data. Other objectives are to model the development of group cohesion, teamwork, and social competence within the group and between the group and other significant people in their lives.

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.

Adventure Camp takes eight kids to a wild animal complex in Florida where they get to combine competition, relationship-building, and science into a program of learning and fun. In each episode, the kids are given exposure to lots of new information about animals, ecology, and the environment. If they demonstrate their knowledge and fulfill certain responsibilities in caring for an animal, the campers earn beads for an opportunity to have different adventures with the animals (e.g., releasing an injured mantee into the wild or swimming with dolphins). Over several weeks, the group gains lots of important knowledge about animal habits, different animal behaviors, animal care, and ecological balance. They also increase their self-knowledge, while forming close friendships and teams with kids they had not known before.
