History WesternAnimation / ToddWorld

* AnAesop: Each story is focused on teaching one of some sort-- most have some sort of social message.

* FantasticFlora: "Garden Variety Pickle" featured the kids in the main cast and Todd's dog Benny making an abandoned lot into a garden. They planted things such as glitter flowers, a flower that could eat rocks and a tree that grew several different types of dog biscuits. None of these, however, were the focus of the story. This instead, went to a small scraggly weed with no unusual properties that Pickle was caring for because he found it beautiful, the story having AnAesop about respecting how different things are beautiful to different people.

''[=ToddWorld=]'' was an animated children's series that aired for two seasons on Discovery Kids. Based loosely on a series of popular picture books by Todd Parr, each installment of the series focused on adventures in the daily lives of the main character, Todd, his talking dog Benny and his friends Pickle, Sophie and Stella, as well as a fairly large cast of guest characters. The series focused on celebrating the uniqueness of each individual-- for example, the main character enjoyed wearing underwear on his head and eating macaroni and cheese in the bathtub. Other lessons including celebrating friendship and willingness to try new things. The program was notable for its theme song, "It's a Colorful World," performed by the celebrated R&B singer Smokey Robinson, as well as nominations for both the Daytime Emmys and the Humanitas Prize.

The series aired in reruns on Creator/{{Qubo}} in the United States and is also available to many library users through a streaming service called Hoopla Digital.
