This is a very interesting show aimed at children, but it’s fun to watch for adults who like fantasy and magic as well. I enjoyed speaking with both the kid stars and these producers. Don’t miss this show’s season 3 return, especially if you have kids.

This is a fun kids’ show, but I think it’s worthwhile for adults to watch as well. I enjoyed speaking to these kids. There was a successful kids’ series on PBS with the same name and general idea in 1992. They brought it back with this version in 2019 on Apple TV+. This season, there is a new cast and they’re including more socially conscious story elements.
