The precious few minutes when my perpetually active toddler would actually sit still on my lap and watch videos with me were the only minutes I could hold, cuddle and kiss on him all day. I lived for those moments. I wanted, however, to enjoy what we were both watching.

So I set out to create a new kind of educational series. A series that used art to teach children about the world instead of sock puppets. A series that presented a shared learning experience. A series that was world-focused, parent-friendly, and set a new standard for quality.
