â??Jacob Two-Twoâ? is an animated show about the challenges of a little boy, the youngest of five siblings. Jacob is so small for his age that he often repeats himself just so he can be heard. His parents are compassionate, but his siblings are not, and Jacob has to be resourceful and inventive in learning how to assert himself, overcome his fears, get along with others, and still enjoy his childhood. He manages to turn even the most inconsequential events into adventures with his friends, Buford and Renee. Every adventure teaches him a life lesson, from learning how to be responsible to figuring out how to manage a bully. In addition, there are implicit lessons that promote a love for learning and language development usually conveyed through Jacobâ??s father, a full-time writer. This program will broadcast on the station's analog and digital channels.

Set in medieval times, â??Jane and the Dragonâ? is an animated show that hails from Martin Bayntonâ??s best-selling book about a middle-class girl named Jane. Jane is raised in the Royal Court as a Knight-in-Training after she demonstrates her courage by leaving the castle to conquer the local dragon. The giant green Dragon, whose sense of humor exceeds his ferocity, instead becomes Janeâ??s best friend and a part of the castle community. In each episode, Jane encounters a challenge that tests her problem-solving skills and requires her to demonstrate her strength of character as a Knight of the Kingâ??s Guard. Sometimes Jane learns a moral lesson, and other times she uses her analytical ability to illustrate how a problem can be made less complicated and easily solved. This program will broadcast on the station's analog and digital channels.
