Production notes
Episode Learning Goals: The learning goal of this episode is to help children deal with new experiences. The strategy song of this episode is: When we do something new, lets talk about what well do..
Fred Rogers Timeless Wisdom: There are two ways that we can be helpful to children when they face something new and difficult. The first is to let them know what to expect. When children know ahead of time whats going to happen -- and not happen -- they can prepare themselves for whats coming. They can think about it and get used to their feelings about it. The second way we can be helpful is by encouraging children to play about these events -- both before and afterwards. Playing can give children a sense of control over scary feelings. -- Fred Rogers.

This series is scheduled to run for 30 28-minute episodes, each consisting of two cartoons.
Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood is an animated program for preschoolers ages 2 to 4 which builds on the pioneering PBS series "Mister Rogers' Neighborhood." This series, for a new generation of children, tells its engaging stories about the life of a preschooler using musical strategies grounded in Fred Rogers' landmark social-emotional curriculum. Through imagination, creativity and music, Daniel and his friends learn the key social skills necessary for school and for life.
The star of the series is 4-year-old Daniel Tiger, son of the original program's beloved puppet Daniel Striped Tiger, who invites young viewers into his world, giving them a kid's eye view of his life. Daniel talks directly to viewers, warmly drawing them in and making them feel like one of his neighbors. As they closely follow and share Daniel's everyday adventures, preschoolers and their families learn fun and practical strategies and skills necessary for growing and learning.
Each episode of Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood consists of two engaging stories that center on a common early learning theme such as dealing with disappointment. One of the key ingredients that sets the new series apart is its groundbreaking use of catchy, musical strategies that reinforce each theme and that preschoolers and parents will both sing- and use- together in their daily lives.
The series' stories were written based on extensive input from a wide range of early learning specialists, formative research with children and the benefit of more than 40 years of the work of Fred Rogers. It all adds up to a powerful tool for parents: an entertaining and thoughtful guide for today's families that integrates music, interactivity and a research-based curriculum.
