| Describe the educational and informational objective of the program and how it meets the definition of Core Programming. | Tree Fu Tom is set in a miniature magical countryside and village area (Treetopolis) on the top of a part of a trunk of a big tree. It follows the adventures of Tom who must sometimes call on "the big world" outside the tree for magical help. He tells the audience to make particular magical moves and then say particular words to "send the magic to me". The magic is shown as orange stuff appearing from around the camera and flying at Tom, who collects it in his arms in a ball, and uses it for whatever problems come. The movements which the audience are called on to make are particularly beneficial for the development of children with dyspraxia.The series was developed in conjunction with the Dyspraxia Foundation with the aim of promoting movement. Foundation specialists worked with the series creators to develop the movements Tree Fu Tom uses to create magic. Five percent of children have dyspraxia, and these movements are similar to those used by occupational therapists to help child development. The magic spells also promote exercise in the lives of all young children. |
