Production notes
In WordWorld, words come alive, words save the day, and words become a child's best friend.
Welcome to WordWorld, the first pre-school series where words are truly the stars of the show! Come along for an adventurous romp into a colorful, vibrant world of words with the lovable, legible WordFriends animals whose bodies are made up of the letters that spell the word they are.
But the WordFriends are characters first and words second. Sheep is painfully shy but loves to pretend. She will take on the role of detective, princess, super hero anything to help her friends! Then there's Frog, the cautious brainiac and word "expert," whose crazy inventions sometimes don't work exactly as planned. Frog's neighbor and good friend is silly, impetuous Duck. Just like a pre-schooler, Duck is still learning his letters and social skills and often needs Frog to help him out of trouble. Pig, a marvelous chef and a bit of a ham, lives life moment by glorious moment; his best buddy, Ant, is a hard working bundle of energy who manages to keep Pig in check, run a radio station out of his ant hill, and lead a family of hundreds of ant cousins. Dog is a WordFriend's best friend and is always ready to play, play, play (and build a word)!
The WordFriends go on comic adventures and face challenges that can only be resolved with the right word. That word is built letter by letter, sound by sound, during the funky "Build a Word" song at the end of every episode. Once the word is built, it "morphs" - comes alive - into the thing it is!
Word building reinforces the pre-reading concept that letters (and their sounds) make words, and that words have real meaning... and power. The series also introduces literacy concepts that pre-schoolers will encounter as they become readers, such as sounding out letters and rhyming. But most of all, WordWorld helps children get excited about reading and see words as their friends.
Each 30-minute episode consists of two cartoons.
