Storytelling for Preschoolers - Cartoonito Tales Trailer

This is the season 2 trailer for Cartoonito Tales. The show was created by our Creative Director, Brett Davey, in 2009. As a parent of two young children, he felt British children's television lacked a show which centred on creative storytelling for preschoolers. Inspired by his children's imaginative play, he created a pilot based on the Nutcracker, voiced by Jane Horrocks. It was a hit and a series was commissioned, swiftly followed by a second. The stories were varied and ranged from The Magic Flute to The Wizard of Oz, Rapunzel to A Trip to the Moon. Each was backed by pieces of classical music chosen to enhance the creative storytelling experience, so that the parents and their children, watching together, would be captivated by the tales After an initial launch in the UK, the show eventually aired around the world, where it was voiced by famous local actors and actresses.
