The Four Pals Series!

Targeted Audience and Show Concept/Goals

The purpose of the show is to give kids an appreciation and acceptance for kids that are different than them and teach them how to effectively communicate with other people. The overall aim of the series is to teach kids that we are all different based on our personality type and it is okay to be different from your friends. It does not mean something is wrong with either of you just because you feel or act differently in the same in situations.

In today's society of computers, texts, and emails, people are losing the ability to effectively communicate. Just think how bad it will be for our children if somebody does not teach them. There are enough shows that teach kids numbers, letters, etc. There are NO shows that teach them how to appreciate and communicate with people. That is where Four Pals is different. The viewers will enjoy watching how each child is different even though they are in the same situation. They will have fun guessing what each child is going to do when presented with the same challenge.

The show is not a typical comedy series, and it does not involve heavy drama or serious conflict - resolution. It teaches that conflict can be avoided all together by going directly to resolution. The show involves the characters to solve some type of daily life challenge or learning situation through communication and cooperation. All done in an entertaining way. For example, Iris loses her favorite toy and does not know how to find it and each of the personalities uses their strengths to help her figure it out

Parents will even be able to understand the personality of their own children by watching the show which will give them a greater understanding of their child's needs, preferences, communication, and learning styles.

Bullying is also a huge problem in today's society and one of the benefits of Four Pals is that it teaches kids to accept children that are different from themselves which is who they usually choose to bully. This is kind of the "Dick and Jane" of this century - wholesome and educational.

The Four Pals is a wholesome educational and entertainment TV show targeted at kids ages 3 to 9 (maybe 10). It is a mixed (hybrid) live action and animated series with actors in kid animatronic costumes set in a virtual environment.

The overall aim of the series is to teach kids that we are all different based on our specific personality type and it is okay to be different from your friends. It does not mean something is wrong with either of you just because you feel or act differently in the same situation.

The show is also entertaining to young children. The show offers music and songs, child participation, games, activities and problem solving in different situations. Each episode takes place in a different setting posing a new set of situations that allow children to learn.
