Title: Cloud Bread
Genre: Fantasy Adventure (3D)
Target audience: 3-6 years old
“One
rainy morning, a tiny cloud was caught on a tree branch outside our home. My
little brother and I removed the tiny cloud very carefully so it wouldn’t blow
away, and gave it to our mom. Mom kneaded it in with the bread dough and put
the loaves in the oven. After it was well-baked, the sweet smelling bread was
so light it floated in the air. That is how our adventures with Cloud Bread
began.”
This TV
animation series is based on the twice award winning book written and
illustrated by Hee-na Baek. The book Cloud Bread was voted the “Best Picture
Book of 2006” by The Bologna Children’s Book Fair.
Cloud
Bread is a story about Hongbi, an imaginative and loveable 7-year-old girl
kitten. With her keen observation and fertile imagination, she and her
5-year-old brother, HongShi, go on adventures around their neighbourhood and
school.
The
stories tell simple tales of day-to-day life, dream fantasies of children and on
their learning about life, responsibility and schoolbook lessons. Each story is
set out to promote creativity, strong social values and educational information.
For example, if Hongbi or Hongshi makes a mistake, they will be guided to
realize their mistakes through the intervention or positive behaviour of other
people like parents, a teacher, or friends. They will then reflect on
themselves.
Positive guidance is vital in early childhood education. With
the positive guidance from adults, children will grow into a well-nurtured
person.
