Series deals with science and the task of making science accessible and understandable. It offers scientific content, scientific theories, the vocabulary and facts of science and the processes of scientific thinking. Experts in both science education and the development needs of this age group have recommended that the children need to focus their learning on the physical sciences and the life sciences along with learning the processes of investigation and experimentation, i.e., (re: PHYSICAL SCIENCE) Beakman discusses and demonstrates the concepts of density and displacement with an experiment explaining why a steel boat floats while a steel bar sinks; and (re: LIFE SCIENCE) Beakman explains the concept of migration and illustrates it with video of migrating birds, butterflies, caribous, salmon and grey whales. As children move from dependence to independence and separate from adult authority, they seek out non-traditional sources of authority. Paul Zaloom's portrayal of Beakman is exactly that--a non-traditional source of authority who answers science questions in non-traditional, quirky, humorous, lively and colorful ways.

WINX CLUB 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 together their unique capabilities to find a solution comprised 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. WINX CLUB promotes the development of social skills, with actions such as speaking kindly to others, doing good for one's community, and managing anger appropriately, integrated into the show's humor. These social competencies are now considered legitimate and necessary objectives of school curricula.
