Goodbodies

Ideal for Grades: K-2
Duration: Eleven, 15-minute episodes
Closed captioned
Producer: Slim Goodbody Productions with GPN

Created by John Burstein (Slim Goodbody) and produced in cooperation with GPN, the eleven 15-minute programs provide a lively, fresh and integrated approach to health education. In addition to the programs, there’s an interactive web site and a teacher’s guide — either in print or on-line.

Host Slim Goodbody and a diverse group of target-age children engage in on-location explorations with health experts. The programs feature animation, music, dance, colorful costumes and puppets. The series is engaging, positive, fast-paced and visually and aurally stimulating.

Good Bodies helps students acquire the knowledge and skills that will enable them to adopt behaviors that enhance good health. Health educators believe it is easier to prevent risky health behaviors than to change them once they’ve been established. An appropriate place to start is in schools with students in Kindergarten through Grade 2.

Free teacher's guide is available for each episode. Click on the individual episodes "More Info" below to access.
