| Describe the educational and informational objective of the program and how it meets the definition of Core Programming. | H.R. Pufnstuf is a children's television series produced by Sid and Marty Krofft and was the first Krofft live-action, life-size puppet program. H.R. Pufnstuf tells of a fairy tale of good versus evil. The show centers on a shipwrecked boy named Jimmy who is 11 years old when he arrives on the island. Jimmy and his friend, a talking flute named Freddy, take a ride on a mysterious boat, which promises adventures across the sea, to kooky Living Island, home of dancing talking trees and singing frogs. The Mayor of Living Island is a friendly and helpful dragon named H.R. Pufnstuf. The boat is actually owned and controlled by a wicked witch named Wilhelmina W. Witchiepoo who rides on a broomstick-like vehicle called the Vroom Broom. She uses the boat to lure Jimmy and Freddy to her castle on Living Island, where she was going to take Jimmy prisoner and steal Freddy. But H.R. Pufnstuf found out about her plot and is able to rescue Jimmy when he leaps out of the enchanted boat with Freddy and swims ashore. Jimmy is taken in by H.R. Pufnstuf, who iss able to protect him from Witchiepoo, as the cave where he lives is the only place her magic has no effect. A frequent plot device involves Witchiepoo and her henchmen Orson Vulture, Seymour Spider, and Stupid Bat trying to steal Freddy only to be thwarted by Pufnstuf. Another concerns Jimmy and Freddy's efforts to return home from Living Island with the same lack of success. Child viewers learn about problem solving, friendship, leadership, and magic. |

| Describe the educational and informational objective of the program and how it meets the definition of Core Programming. | LAZYTOWN promotes fitness and healthful habits for children of preschool and primary grades. It takes place in an imaginary setting, LazyTown, and most episodes relate children's eating and fitness habits to problem solving in their "real world." The lead character, Stephanie, guides the audience through the story. She and her best friends, a group of "human" puppets reside in LazyTown, where her uncle is Mayor Milford Meanswell. The underground spy and influencer who defines the ethos of LazyTown is Robbie Rotten, and he is determined to ruin the health and fitness practices of Stephanie and her friends. When the kids get into difficulties with Robbie Rotten, it is Sportacus, gymnast/athlete, who comes to the rescue from his home in a spaceship that hovers over earth, prepared to answer to any call for help. The ever-present theme of LazyTown is to eat "sports candy'" which consists of fruits and vegetables, get sufficient sleep, and go outside and engage in a wide range of physical activities, from playing games and holding athletic competitions, to building forts and play structures. |

| Describe the educational and informational objective of the program and how it meets the definition of Core Programming. | Green Screen Adventures features stories and drawings by students in first through eighth grade using sketch comedy, story theater, game shows, original songs, puppetry and more. Since their debut in 2007, they have featured stories written by almost 1,000 elementary school students. The show is set around the submissions of short stories, school reports, poetry, essays, basic academic questions and artwork from students between first and eighth grades. An ensemble of actors for the series then takes these submissions, and the program's writers and actors create a short teleplay which is acted out with minimal props, costumes and a chroma key backdrop (the titlular green screen of the series.) The student's story is brought to life by the actors as the green screen becomes the world of the story or subject. The Green Screen also showcases the children's original artwork. |

The show is hosted by Sean, who drives around in a double-decker bus fully equipped with art supplies, and a kitchen, all ready for any assignment. The projects encourage parent engagement and often feature families working together to make something for display in the child's home. Sean is accompanied by Doggity, an every-faithful Beagle dog, who transforms into an animated character during interstitial trips to a parallel universe and kitchen full of prank playing animated characters. While the show will be enjoyed by preschoolers, the projects are also very practical and engaging to implement for children ages 5-8. The art projects typically feature lessons on recycling materials for re-use in making art and always demonstrate that creativity can transform something intended for one purpose into something useful to achieve a completely different goal. |

| Describe the educational and informational objective of the program and how it meets the definition of Core Programming. | EL SHOW DE CHICA features a five-year old "baby" chick who spends her days with her parents in their costume shop, the Coop. The shop's one employee, Kelly, doubles as Chica's nanny and the ensemble is rounded out with Bunji, a large floppy eared rabbit, and Stitches, a straw mannequin that sits in the window. In each episode, Chica develops or encounters a problem that she cannot immediately resolve. Usually her issues involve impulse control, distractibility, judgment, and inter-personal behaviors. She and Kelly usually work on the problem through an adventure - a fantasy transformation to animation - where Bunji and Stitches come alive and join Chica and Kelly for the problem solving process. The core educational content is primarily socio-emotional development, and Chica learns how to express herself properly, think before she acts, and interact with others effectively. She often learns that it takes hard work and practice to become proficient at different skills. |

Jimmy and his friend, a talking flute named Freddy, take a ride on a mysterious boat, which promises adventures across the sea, to kooky Living Island, home of dancing talking trees and singing frogs. The Mayor of Living Island is a friendly and helpful dragon named H.R. Pufnstuf. The boat is actually owned and controlled by a wicked witch named Wilhelmina W. Witchiepoo who rides on a broomstick-like vehicle called the Vroom Broom. She uses the boat to lure Jimmy and Freddy to her castle on Living Island, where she was going to take Jimmy prisoner and steal Freddy. But H.R. Pufnstuf found out about her plot and is able to rescue Jimmy when he leaps out of the enchanted boat with Freddy and swims ashore. Jimmy is taken in by H.R. Pufnstuf, who iss able to protect him from Witchiepoo, as the cave where he lives is the only place her magic has no effect. A frequent plot device involves Witchiepoo and her henchmen Orson Vulture, Seymour Spider, and Stupid Bat trying to steal Freddy only to be thwarted by Pufnstuf. Another concerns Jimmy and Freddy's efforts to return home from Living Island with the same lack of success. Child viewers learn about problem solving, friendship, leadership, and magic. |
