Describe the educational and informational objective of the program and how it meets the definition of Core Programming. Floogals is an animated show starring three space aliens named Fleeker and Flo and Boomer. They have been sent to earth to explore and investigate and discover and report their findings to their superiors at Floogal headquarters. The diminutive Floogals are no taller than a large safety pin and their visual perspective is literally the point of view of the show. With the multiple challenges of their size and ignorance of all things Hooman which is Floogal speak for human the Floogals have a lot of work on their hands. They are engaged in the dual processes of discovery and problem solving as nothing on earth is familiar to them. Much like young children they begin by encountering something new and then go through a comedic multi-step process of watching and listening and touching and note-taking until they have figured out what and how their new discovery fits into the Hooman universe. Floogals replaced Earth to Luna effective 2/9/16.

Describe the educational and informational objective of the program and how it meets the definition of Core Programming. The Chica Show features a five year old baby chick that spends her days with her parents in their costume shop, the Coop. The shops one employee, Kelly, doubles as Chicas nanny and the ensemble is rounded out with Bunji, a large floppy eared rabbit and Stitches, a straw mannequin that sits in the window. Chicas parents were formerly entertainers in the vaudeville tradition and they regale the audience with stories and songs from their theatrical past. They enjoy and indulge Chica, who sometimes acts younger than her age and gets into all kinds of predicaments. Kelly uses fantasy play to transform herself, Chica, Bunji and Stitches into animated characters in another universe, who are struggling with a problem similar to the one Chica experienced in the Coop. Without fail, they find the problem can be solved and they carry that knowledge back to the Coop to use on another day.

Describe the educational and informational objective of the program and how it meets the definition of Core Programming. Astroblast based on the book series by author and illustrator Bob Kolar is set on a space station in an unknown solar system. The station is populated by five animal characters and one 3 eyed octopus of unknown derivation. Each episode begins with an everyday conversation or incident that grows into a predicament of some sort needing a solution. While these predicaments take place on a space station populated by animal characters and aliens from different galaxies the issues and resolutions resonate for a preschool audience. Through comedy and zippy action our target audience sees how the characters learn lessons for practical living such as how to keep track of things that belong to you or practice good habits or clean up a space when you have made a mess or rebound from a failure or embarrassing incident or resist the urge to blame others for your mistakes.

They have been sent to earth to explore and investigate and discover and report their findings to their superiors at Floogal headquarters. The diminutive Floogals are no taller than a large safety pin and their visual perspective is literally the point of view of the show. With the multiple challenges of their size and ignorance of all things Hooman which is Floogal speak for human the Floogals have a lot of work on their hands. They are engaged in the dual processes of discovery and problem solving as nothing on earth is familiar to them. Much like young children they begin by encountering something new and then go through a comedic multi-step process of watching and listening and touching and note-taking until they have figured out what and how their new discovery fits into the Hooman universe.
