Franny’s Feet is a PBS series that introduces children, ages 3-7 to the wonders of exploration and promotes multicultural and global awareness. In every episode, while helping her grandpa in his shoe repair shop, Franny slips on a pair of shoes and asks,“Where will my feet take me today…?” The possibilities are endless from the mountain tops of Tibet to a tea ceremony in Japan!
With Franny…Global awareness, science, math, geography, and language arts are woven together with delightful storytelling for a seamless, entertaining, and interdisciplinary learning experience.
