9:00am Jacob Two Two "Jacob Two-Two" is an animated program based on the multi-award winning book series by the late renowned Canadian author Mordecai Richler. "Jacob Two-Two" is about a very little boy with a very big heart. As the youngest member of a large family, Jacob has to say things twice to be heard. He looks up to his siblings, but tends to be ignored or bullied by them when he tries to partake in their activities. Still, there are those who notice him when he inadvertently lands himself in adventures that involve mysterious neighbors, international spies, and villains that come in all shapes and sizes. Often accompanied by his closest pals, Buford and Renee, Jacob Two-Two finds innovative ways to get himself and others out of hot water as he tumbles through a series of exciting adventures with honesty, integrity, and a whole lot of determination.

9:30am Dragon "Dragon" is based on the books by best-selling children's author Dav Pilkey (author of the popular "Captain Underpants" series). "Dragon" is a stop-motion series for preschoolers about a kindhearted blue dragon named Dragon. Dragon is friendly and helpful, but tends to see things from a much different perspective than most of us--and that's when the fun begins. Set in a colorful world populated by a menagerie of animal pals, the series playfully explores themes that are universally identifiable to children: wanting a friend, being afraid of the dark, and trying new things. Voice-over narration underscores the educational purpose of the story by asking questions and reinforcing the problem-solving strategies that Dragon incorporates as he playfully skips through his day.

10:00am My Friend Rabbit "My Friend Rabbit” is a charming and whimsical animated series based on the Caldecott Gold Medal winning book of the same name by Eric Rohmann. This world-premiere series introduces young viewers to the world of Rabbit and Mouse, best friends through thick and thin, and their colorful friends from across the animal kingdom. As Mouse says, his friend Rabbit means well but somehow he just can't avoid getting into sticky situations. This series follows this duo on adventures that might include a topsy-turvy game of Follow the Leader with geese friends, the Gibble Girls, or a rainbow chase to see where they might end up. Along the way, Rabbit and Mouse join friends like Hazel the squirrel, Jasper the wise alligator, Thunder the hard-charging rhino, and others, on unique journeys that call for ingenuity, creativity and, most of all, friendship.

10:30am 3-2-1 Penguins "3-2-1 Penguins!" and "LarryBoy Stories," are two fun-filled animated adventures from the producers of the award-winning VeggieTales series. “3-2-1 Penguins!” tells the story of two young kids (Jason and Michelle) and four out-of-this-world penguins, as they explore the galaxy -- and learn important lessons and values along the way. The second story, “LarryBoy,” follows the caped cucumber and his alter-ego Larry as he defends decency and guards goodness everywhere.

11:00am VeggieTales "VeggieTales" is the award-winning 3-D animated series that teaches values like honesty, kindness and forgiveness in a delightfully wacky way. The series follows the hilarious adventures of Bob the Tomato, Larry the Cucumber and a bushel full of their vegetable friends as they learn important life lessons. Each episode includes infectious "Silly Songs," usually sung by Larry the Cucumber, that help reinforce the values-based message.

11:30am Jane and the Dragon “Jane and the Dragon” is an animated comedy-adventure series, co-produced by Nelvana and developed by the leading design team from Weta Workshop ("Lord of the Rings," "King Kong"), which follows the comedic exploits of a 13-year-old girl in medieval times. "Jane and the Dragon" is based on the popular book series by Martin Banyton. As an only child, Jane was raised to be a lady-in-waiting, but through her determination and a stroke of luck, she ends up being trained as a knight in the King's Guard instead. Accompanied by her best friend, a giant green 300-year-old dragon who lives in her backyard, Jane experiences a series of adventures that test her character and skills as a young knight in a castle full of friends and foes. Entrenched in each episode are social-emotional messages that hinge on the universal themes of courage, kindness, honesty and friendship.
