Production notes
Each episode contains two separate 13-minute segments in which Betsy and her friends take on new adventures. Within each story, the kindergarteners learn an academic and behavioral lesson, and they use these lessons to solve the main problems of the segments.
It is directed by Academy Award-winning animator Fred Crippen. It is for audiences ages 2-6.
There are also educational interstitials before and after the 13-minute segments. These help to highlight lessons learned throughout the series and do so in a quick and fun way.
Betsy represents the 20 million American schoolchildren who are preparing for, or are involved in, the transition from pre-school or home to kindergarten. Betsy's Kindergarten Adventures takes the trauma out of this difficult stage with lots of light-hearted fun and learning in every episode.
Betsy's Kindergarten Adventures was created by kindergarten teacher and children's author Betsy M. Quinn, based on her own stories with her students. It is the first and only series to address these unique academic challenges and social concerns. Stories deal with real schoolroom and schoolyard situations from a child's perspective, without the cynicism and "attitude" found in other kids' shows. Besides instilling confidence and social skills, each episode teaches curriculum-based learning concepts that aid in the subjects of reading, science and math.
With entertaining stories and some of the best voice talent in the business, Betsy's Kindergarten Adventures is enjoyable for adults to watch along with kids, meaning higher tune-in and a more enriching experience for youngsters.
