Who said that animals can't talk? At "El show de Perico", the funniest show in the jungle, Perico and Amanda talk without regards in front of a big muppet audience of Latin American fauna. In every show they find different ways out of situations that the kids face in their daily lives as is the bullying, friendship or laziness. In "El show de Perico", the animals are not the only ones that participate: the kids watching the show at home have the chance, through Internet, of choosing their favorite option or give their own solution.

"El show de Perico" is a discussion space around the exercise of citizenship, that turns into a fun guide for the kids to reflect and consider new alternatives when the time comes to resolve new and similar conflicts in their real lives.

In each episode of the show, a single issue is developed, a conflict in which an animal is immersed in, and who in turn is the main show's guest. This conflict is brought up from a concept or theme (for example the rage, the jealousy, the envy, the friendship, tolerance, living in community, etc.), and starts to look for possible solutions along the episode.

Each section of the Talk Show is developed and presented by a different animal journalist and in those, different points of view will be proposed in a creative way which will give the viewers a wide variety of options to resolve the situation as it happens in real life.

Synopsis:
Felix is looking out for ways and even the potential necessity of having meals without any meat in the future. At Fraunhofer Institue in Freising he is exploring alternative solutions, which are without impact on the climate change and healthier than the conventional way. He is trying meat substitue made from peas, wheat and soya and is also explaining about how scientists in the Netherlands produce meat from animal cells in the laboratory.

Educational Aims:
The children of today are the adults of tomorrow - and therefore they have to play an active role in developing our future and setting up sustainable living standards. EARTH TO FUTURE provides the necessary background information to enable them to deal with it. The exciting new format presents subjects of the future and is especially prepared for young viewers. Subjects range from environmental protection to questions from the social, technical or educational area. The programme provides relevant information and is to encourage children to think about the consequences of their own actions and to actively engage themselves as makers of the future.

It's a story about Kelly, 11 years old girl who has a long dark hair. She is proud of her hair and loves it very much.
Kelly feels sorry for those children who have lost their hair because of cancer. She heard of organization that makes wigs for cancer patients out of donated hair. She wants to donate her hair.
We followed Kelly from the moment she thought about donating her hair until the moment she did. She shared with us her struggling doubts and thoughts of donating her hair. We followed her journey that involved with meeting children with cancer.

One of the powerful moments of this film was a moment before she had to cut her hair. Another meaningful moment was when she is holding her hair as a wig and giving it to Liza, a little girl with cancer.
One of the aims of this film is to bring up the value of helping each other, especially those who have special needs. We want to encourage children to get involved in volunteering in the community, to give something from themselves to others without expecting to get anything back.
And finally, this film teaches children how to overcome a challenge and to show them that it is doable.

Design is about understanding what something is all about, and then reinventing it, making a thing more beautiful, more comfortable, easier to use. Design is about people and things, but also about people and other people. Design is a process: you observe, you think, you discover and you act.
Design Ah! is a program that shows children the joy of design. The program consists of short segments that are designed to help children grasp objects and ideas from different perspectives. Some of the featured segments are: “Looking at Design” which is an observation of a variety of designs of the same object; “Split Up!” shows the deconstruction process of design to help viewers see how designs and items can be separated into many forms, shapes, and colors; “Movement Design” and “Without This…” show how designs are vital to innovation and necessity; and “Designers” which introduces noted designers who give important tips about their design work. All the segments are produced by designers at the top of their fields making creative use of images, music and sound.
Using objects and actions that children see every day, the program aims to offer children a greater insight into the nature of things, and greater potential to create things that no one has ever seen before.

According to the Philippines’ National Statistics Office, five and a half million Filipino youth are involved in child labor. Even more alarming, their numbers are increasing. On this episode, “Brigada” tells the story of children whose childhood has been snatched away by their struggle with poverty.

12-year old Bisaya goes out to sea every morning with two of his friends - 11-year old Christian and 13-year old Ruben - to salvage crude oil dumped on the water by ships. They seek out patches of oil spill on the water, dive in and collect the oil with a sponge, risking their health for the price of just a little over a dollar for a pail of oil.

At the garbage dumpsite in Payatas, although strictly prohibited by authorities, children climb up on moving garbage trucks to scavenge for items that they can sell. This is an old story that has gone on for several years. Fortunately, the Payatas Football Club, organized by volunteers, has brought new hope to the children of Payatas. Rather than scavenging in the dumps, many of them now join the football team that has taken them to places far away from the dumpsite and taught them to dream big once more.

Brigada’s documentary on these children aims to stir awareness among viewers and convey the message that these strong and compelling images of poverty still exists in real-life, and that we can choose to help and uplift the well-being of children living in poverty.

To what lengths would a 12-year-old child go to save the lives of innocent animals? Every afternoon, Wei Wei rushes straight from school to the aid of animals abandoned by their owners. On weekends, he volunteers at an animal shelter, tirelessly cleaning, feeding and looking after homeless animals. He never complains, not even when picking up dead animals off the road. “We have to look after these voiceless animals because they can’t look after themselves,” he says. Taiwanese authorities capture 100,000 stray animals every year, of which 75% are ultimately put down. It is the hope of the filmmakers that, through Wei Wei’s love and respect for animal life, more and more people will learn about the plight of homeless animals and the selfless volunteers who do everything in their power to protect them.

Seeking Refuge

Seeking Refuge is a series of animated documentaries exploring the experiences of five young refugees and asylum seekers who have fled to the UK, told by the children themselves.

Each has a different story to tell, but each communicates the collective struggles and hopes of young people fleeing from their country of origin and the issues they face adjusting to life in the UK.

Seeking Refuge’s overarching aim is to communicate the experiences of young refugees and asylum seekers to primary schoolchildren and through this to develop their understanding of the world they live in.

These films provide a vital educational resource that seeks to explore some of the issues affecting young refugees in schools, by enabling them to share their stories and making them available to school children across the UK.

The combination of real-life testimony with creative and rich animation provides a resource that is both educational and engaging to young children. It enables children to understand issues explained in their own language and helps them to look at their world through someone else’s eyes.

Seeking Refuge provides a vital resource in educating children on some increasingly pertinent issues, as well as helping them to reflect on and discuss the part we all play in our increasingly multicultural society.

The films formed a key part of Refugee Week in June 2012 being broadcast on BBC Two, and were used in schools across the UK.

This is the story of the science and engineering behind the pioneering attempt to break the world landspeed record of 763mph - and rev it up to over 1,000mph. Dr Yan Wong and his team of young investigators go on an adventure to find out the secrets behind the Bloodhound Supersonic Car. They meet the team of expert engineers who are designing and building this unique car and their investigations lead them to experience indoor skydiving, aerobatic flying and the thrill of dragster racing. They explore questions including "Is Bloodhound a car, a plane or a boat?", "What makes Bloodhound move?", "Why is it hard to travel so fast?", "Why doesn't Bloodhound have tyres?", "How does Bloodhound slow down?" and "What's Bloodhound like to drive?" Meanwhile back in the classroom they conduct a range of exciting scientific experiments linked to this amazing engineering adventure.

Bloodhound is not just an extreme engineering project. A key aim of the entire project is educational - to use this iconic engineering challenge to inspire the next generation of scientists and engineers, aiming to be as inspirational as the moon landings. "The Bloodhound Adventure" aims to capture the excitement and scale of the project, highlighting the usefulness of science and linking this amazing project to science that children are familiar with and to experiments that they can do at school.

Fran Scott, qualified scientist and bubbly presenter, takes our young audience through each aspect of inventing, from what kids think of when they hear the word ‘inventor’, to what an invention can be; the inspiration behind ideas and their development, right through to the final invention, its testing and improvement, and the impact they have, both on our lives and on the world around us. Throughout, she demonstrates by showing us the inventions and meeting their inventors.
Fran meets various inventors to take us through their inspiration, development, testing and persistence. She discovers a swimsuit modeled on sharks' skin, a disabled inventor who was inspired by his spinal injury to invent a ‘gripping device’ and an inventor who created a fridge requiring no electricity for use in third world countries amongst others. This in turn aims to inspire children to look more creatively at every day objects and the global world around them and think about how they could invent their own solutions.
Its educational aims are to show children the importance of play in creating new inventions, demonstrating the need for persistence and a willingness to adapt an invention through testing and challenges children to get involved in the creative process themselves through play, analysis and problem solving. It aims to provide children with a determination to create as well as a greater understanding of the world we live in and the realistic possibility that they could shape it in the future.
