The Gift

All the kids are busy making presents for a surprise party for Pom Pom, but May get decide what to make. Finally with Shooting Star House’s help, May finds a very special gift. A really nice storyboard from JK Kim.

A Gift from Pom Pom

May needs some cheering up and Pom Pom has just the solution, a Show! Pom Pom, the Sheep and the kids put on a show based on a favorite book with great teamwork. Another really nice sensitive storyboard from Al Jeffery.

The Toy

Meghan is tired of being told, ‘No’ but finds she has made a big problem when she activates a new toy in Ms Green’s house. Pom Pom and the kids must try to capture the runaway toy before Ms Green gets back. A really beautiful storyboard from Kathy Carr.

Pom Pom's New Friend

Pom Pom has a new friend, Crash the Bird is a hyperactive little bird who is just learning to fly. As Pom Pom helps him practice, they become close friends. They are faced with a problem when Crash’s mother tells him that it is time to migrate. This little story has lots of heart and a lovely storyboard from Llyn Hunter.

The Moon's a Balloon

Pom Pom and the kids learn about the Moon’s phases as they find with a little imagination the world can look very different. This is a lovely and evocative episode from Al Jeffrey's sweet storyboard.

Bubbles

Melissa asks Pom Pom take care of her new fish for a couple days. Pom Pom is amazed and alarmed when the ‘fish’ begins to change. Shooting Star House explains the mystery. Brad Goodchild did this fresh and imaginative storyboard.

The Music of the Sheep

Music shows are always the most fun and this is a unique one!
Christopher Smith's great vocal interpretations of the sheep make this a hilarious episode and the first rate character animation from Min Hu's great team at Carloon really bring it to life. I think this is a really original and effective show for teaching musical concepts to young viewers.

Pom Pom

Sometimes in designing for an international audience, things fall into place all by themselves. Above, Pom Pom is holding cards that spell his name in Chinese characters. Pom Pom's name literally translates to 'Friend Friend' in Mandarin. It's perfect for him and such a natural fit.

we are deep into post production now and preparing all kinds of merch and licensing materials, but more on that soon.
