Tony Award winning actress Phylicia Rashad warmly introduces children to the rich tapestry of world cultures thriving in America today. Each culture is presented in fun and fast-paced educational segments that celebrate that community's values and traditions. Programs include geography and history segments about the culture's original country of origin; kid-hosted tours of neighborhood restaurants, markets and festivals; foreign language segments in which children learn to count to ten and say "hello," "goodbye," "thank you" and "friend"; arts and crafts demonstrations; a traditional animated folktale; and a traditional folksong performed by a chorus of children and musicians.
