Super WHY to the Rescue!
What new TV show is helping kids around central Illinois get excited about reading?
Super WHY!
A breakthrough preschool series designed to help kids ages 3 to 6 with the critical skills that they need to learn to read (and love to read),
Super WHY
is an interactive reading adventure! Four best friends anchor each episode: Red, from Little Red Riding Hood; Pig from The Three Little Pigs; Princess from The Princess and The Pea; and Whyatt, the curious younger brother of Jack from Jack and The Beanstalk who discovers he has the power to fly inside books to find answers to his questions. Each of these characters is re-imagined as an everyday kid: Red rides roller blades; Pig drives a trike; Princess loves tea parties and dress-up; and Whyatt is the group's natural leader.
The Super Readers can solve any obstacle with their literacy powers!
"Inside" each book the Super Readers lead the viewer on an engaging reading adventure. They talk to fictional characters from the story, play reading games and activities to overcome obstacles, search for Super Letters, and practice such key skills as letter identification, word decoding, spelling, vocabulary and comprehension. Watch Red and Whyatt on WILL-TV at 8 a.m. and 11 a.m. Monday-Friday and 8 a.m. on Saturdays.
