The projects encourage parent engagement and often feature families working together to make something to display within the child's home. Sean's side-kick, Doggity, is an ever-faithful beagle who transforms into an animated character during interstitial trips to a parallel universe, set in a kitchen full of prank playing animated characters.

Describe the educational and informational objective of the program and how it meets the definition of Core Programming. | Lazy Town is a show that is all about health, fitness, and being good friends. Set in a fantasy world known as Lazy Town, which is populated by inactive residents, we see a visitor named Stephanie determined to coax her friends and relatives to begin healthful, active living. She wins over her new friends, Ziggy, Stingy, Trixie and Pixel, to leave their gaming consoles and candy stashes at home so they can go outside and play. She gets her Uncle, the Mayor and his friend Ms. Busy Body to support her efforts. But all of them are constantly foiled by Robbie Rotten, who lives underground and is determined to send Lazy Town back to inactivity and quiet. Coming to the rescue is the athlete Sportacus who lives in a spaceship and receives signals from the kids or the Mayor whenever they need help. Sportacus has two goals, to keep the peace and to promote healthful, positive living. When Robbie Rotten is discovered and contained through comic pratfalls, he goes back to his underground lair and all is well in Lazy Town, until another day and another time when Robbie will rise again.

Include any other comments or information you want the Commission to consider in evaluating your compliance with the Children's Television Act (or use this space for supplemental explanations). This may include information on any other noncore educational and informational programming that you aired this quarter or plan to air during the next quarter, or any existing or proposed non-broadcast efforts that will enhance the educational and informational value of such programming to children. See 47 C.F.R. Section 73.671, NOTES 2 and 3. | During the Fourth Quarter 2014, WNBW addressed the informational and educational needs of children through a variety of programming, outreach activities and sponsorships of local children's events and fundraisers. WNBW continued its commitment to the Backpack For Kids program by packing backpacks with food for eligible kids to take home over the weekends. Through our locally produced PSA's, we are able to raise awareness about hunger in our local communities. It helps hungry kids have something to eat. WNBW served as the television sponsor for the Scramble For Kids golf tournament which raises money for our local Children's Home Society, Girls Place and Boys and Girls Club. These charities make a difference in the lives of Alachua County youth. WNBW produced a PSA and sponsored the annual Kickoff For a Cure, which is the fundraiser for our local chapter finding the cure for Cystic Fibrosis. WNBW was also the media sponsor for our local Children's Home Society event called "Celebrate Adoption" which is a family-friendly event where children and families came together to meet with local community members who could help them with information about all different forms of adoption. WNBW was also the television sponsor and organizer of the annual "Gainesville Greatest Sale," a fundraiser for the March of Dimes. |
