Luna, Chip and Inkie: Adventure Rangers Go - Review and Giveaway

We'll start with the Disclaimer - Yes, I did receive early episodes for review, but this just means I'm able to giveaway a prize too! Enter the contest at the end of this post.

Over the last few months, we have been telling you about the new Knowledge Kids show Luna, Chip and Inkie: Adventure Rangers Go. It is headed to a digital screen near you on April 4, 2022 but we are able to catch a sneak peek of the upcoming episodes. This show is sure to be a hit for families with young ones.  This adorable animated series has lots of lessons, problem-solving processes and giggles galore! The show will appeal to a modern-day audience by showing teachable moments. The episodes had topics like best hygiene practices when you are sick, learning how to work together for a common goal and it even had an episode about self-regulation and belly breathing! Take a look at the trailer below to see what this series has in store.

Set in the forests, mountains, lakes and ocean near the fictional town of Eagle Creek, the series is inspired by the rugged, natural beauty of the Pacific West Coast. In each episode, the trio of enthusiastic helpers tackle problems in their town, but not before they experience some hilarious flops that require them to look for different ways of unlocking a solution. Our heroes remind young viewers that even though they might feel overwhelmed as they face challenges, looking at the problem in a different way and having the resilience to try again are the keys to unlocking solutions. 

We think Parents with Children aged 3-6 will really enjoy watching Luna, Chip and Inkie: Adventure Rangers Go together as a family.

During the first three weeks of its release, there will be 15 episodes to watch (5 each week for the first 3 weeks of April) and then additional episodes will be added through the year. They will all stream for FREE on Knowledge Kids.ca making this show accessible to everyone with digital devices.

The Amazing Isy Aboagye Takes Her Talent to Screens Across Canada in CBC's Ukulele U

 

We were thrilled to learn that one of our Stuff to do KW families had some very big news! The amazing Isy Aboagye is starring in the new CBC Kids Saturday Morning Show and CBC Gem Streaming Show Ukulele U!

Many local families know that Isy has been performing locally at events like Kitchener Bluesfest and singing the National Anthem at KW Titans game.  We wanted to learn more about Isy's journey to our television and video screens across Canada so we asked her five questions about it.

Thanks to Isy for taking some time out of her hectic schedule for this interview and to her Mom Danielle for helping us set it up!

1. How did this role come about?

 I work with an agent in Toronto and audition for a lot of roles. Since COVID, most of the auditions are done online, so I sent in an audition tape and then had an opportunity to audition over Zoom with the Director, David Connolly, Melanie Doane, the Host, and a couple of other people. I had to learn some new songs and a couple of dances and then we just had some fun! I found out a few weeks later that I got the part and I was so excited! We recorded all of the music individually in a recording studio in Toronto and then finally got to meet the rest of the cast on the first day of filming in Hamilton. 

2. What is your favorite part of being on the show?

 Number one is the Music! The songs are so catchy and fun to sing and listen to. Everyone who has heard the music loves it! There are new versions of old classics and Melanie made some amazing new songs too! I also loved that I got to make so many new friends. It was so nice to be able to sing and dance with other people after we had been in quarantine for so long. We had to take a lot of precautions to be safe, but we still managed to have so much fun together. I’m so happy that I met everyone and that I made some really great friends. 

3. What advice do you have for other kids looking to follow this path? 

You need to practice, take classes and have fun! I take Vocal, Guitar/Ukulele and Acting lessons. It’s a lot of work to memorize new scripts and songs for auditions, but every opportunity gives you a chance to learn something new. Also, don’t get discouraged! You might audition for 100 roles and only get one, just keep being you and working hard. 

4. Who are your role models?

I really look up to a lot of musicians, especially older blues music icons like Etta James. I also really love more modern musicians like SZA, Alica Keys or Adele! I love the opportunity to learn from musicians. I’ve been really lucky that Kitchener has some really cool musicians who I look up to and who take the time to work with younger musicians like myself. When they take the time to mentor younger musicians, we get to learn so much and I really hope they know how much we appreciate their time and that they are role models to a lot of people like myself. 

5. What are your future plans?

I am going to keep working on becoming a better musician and actor. I am excited to be back to school and look forward to being able to hang out with friends and just be a normal teenager. I also can’t wait for everyone to see the new episodes of Ukulele U that come out every Saturday on CBC and stream on CBC Gem.

Kids Shows Premiering on the Knowledge Kids app and KnowledgeKids.ca

Here's a list of premiere dates for the shows your young kids will want to watch

Fall Lineup - beginning Sept 6, 2021

Paw Patrol (season 8) NEW EPISODES AVAILABLE BI-WEEKLY In season 8 of the global hit, Ryder and his pack of rescue pups find new ways to work together to help the citizens of Adventure Bay. They use reasoning, teamwork and just the right high-tech vehicle to analyse the situation, come up with a plan and work together to accomplish their goals

Gus the Itsy Bitsy Knight  PREMIERES SEPTEMBER 6, 2021 Small in stature but big in courage and kindness, Gus is ready for action in this new animated series. Set in medieval times with a modern twist, it follows the diminutive knight as he pursues adventures on his electric pony. Gus’s world includes fellow knights, princesses and the big guy, Daddy King, along with rascals like Stinky-Dragons, Warticious, the Shadow Knight and his naughty Knight-Knights. Although Gus’ quests rarely go as planned, he's sure to learn plenty of life lessons along the way!

Elinor Wonders Why  PREMIERES SEPTEMBER 6, 2021 Elinor is a curious little bunny. When she encounters something she doesn’t understand, she can’t let it go until she figures it out! With the help of her friends Ari, an imaginative bat, and Olive, a perceptive elephant, there’s lots to learn and explore in Animal Town – like the best way to engineer a pillow fort and why Ari’s Velcro watch strap only sticks to certain things. Engaging and fun, the series encourages children to follow their curiosity, ask questions and find answers using science enquiry skills.

ABC with Kenny G  PREMIERES SEPTEMBER 6, 2021 Fans of the award-winning Canadian series 16 Hudson will recognize the star of these swinging little animated shorts – the grumpy cat Kensington, who seems unimpressed by all the daytime shenanigans in the neighbourhood. But when night falls and the humans go to bed, Kensington (or rather his alter-ego Kenny G) comes to life. He rounds up a bunch of animal buddies and slinks down to the basement boiler room – home to the local “milk & cookies” jazz club. There, he croons late-night ABC songs (L is for lazy lobsters, leaping lemurs and lively loons) to his grooving groupies. Now that is one cool cat!

Dog Loves Books  PREMIERES SEPTEMBER 9, 2021 Forget about bones – there’s nothing these two dogs like better than chewing on a good book. (Thankfully not in a literal sense!) Dog is cool, calm and unflappable – a dog of few words. Pug is enthusiastic, flappable and very, very chatty. They may be opposites, but the two best pals share a love of stories. When Dog’s bookshop closes for the day, he picks up a book from the shelves and then he and Pug are off on an exciting, imaginative adventure. Whimsical and humorous, the series aims to foster interest in reading, especially among young boys.

Let’s Go Luna (new episodes) PREMIERES SEPTEMBER 12, 2021 Andy, Carmen and Leo travel the world with their parent's circus (Circo Fabuloso), learning about new countries and meeting new people  In the new season of this Socials Studies -themed series, they visit Iceland and India, the United States, Ghana in Africa, Tokyo, Buenos Aires, Polynesia, Mexico, Scotland, China, Switzerland, France, Croatia, Jamaica and England.  Explore traditions, music, food, ceremonies, legends and sea monster sightings!
