âWINX CLUBâ utilizes fairy castles, magical caverns and timeless villages as a backdrop for coming-of-age lessons, group problem-solving, cooperative investigations and the important social and emotional learning opportunities that children need to develop the valuable emotional competencies of resilience, empathy and self-confidence. In each episode, as a conflict arises, the fairies pool their unique capabilities to find a solution comprised of the sum total of their special talents. Life scenarios that commonly worry children, from feeling vulnerable and powerless to being lost or separated from loved ones, are enacted throughout the series and a variety of practical behavioral solutions are presented. âWINX CLUBâ promotes the development of social skills, with actions such as speaking kindly to others, doing good for oneâs community, and managing anger appropriately, integrated into the showâs humor. These social competencies are now considered legitimate and necessary objectives of school curricula. The program will be regularly scheduled and air between the hours of 7:00am and 10:00 pm. The program is 30 minutes in length, and will be identified as an educational and informational show, targeted to 6 - 11 year olds, at the beginning and through each broadcast and in listings provided to publishers of program guides.

"Animal Atlas" is an engaging and informative series. Just as browsing through a good atlas makes information about terrain and natural boundaries accessible and appealing, this program brings information about the natural world of animals to viewers in a non-didactic, entertaining way. Its approach in no way diminishes the learning that takes place when observations lead to conclusionsâand young minds will draw many conclusions about the natural world shown in this series. These conclusions are consistent with nationally published curriculum goals in the natural sciences. They include concepts such as the functions of animals in an ecosystem (predator/prey relationships, etc.), the elements of animal classification, and the general emphasis on life science. The program is regularly scheduled and airs between the hours of 7:00 am and 10:00 pm. The program is 30 minutes in length, and is identified as an educational and informational show, targeted to teens (13-16 year olds), at the beginning of each broadcast and in listings provided to publishers of program guides.
