The Discovery Kids cable TV channel uses interactivity to propose to its little viewers a journey through four different animated worlds in a new cartoon series called 'Iconicles’ (Iconic).

Faced with the increasingly diversified programming dedicated to children's audiences, Discovery Kids Channel, an American cable television channel with programming focused on educational issues for children, launched the new program 'Iconic', inviting the little ones of the house to make a fun journey of exploration and discovery of the cartoon world.

The program allows children to travel through four different worlds: the wild jungle, the farm, the garden and the seaside, and meet the characters who inhabit them. This trip is in charge of "Nat" (Gavin Stenhouse), a young explorer who has discovered the "Iconics" thanks to an amazing interactive display that with a gentle hand movement transports him to any of these worlds.

In addition, their invention also allows animated characters to escape from the screen to play, run around and have fun with the kids in the company of characters like "Ardi", an energetic and reckless squirrel, who loves to collect things; "Rocky", a rhinoceros, which from time to time is a little grumpy; polar bears, "Splish" and "Splash", twin brothers who always want to be in the midst of action, and "Doña Mú", a cow that is strictly governed by the rules and keeps everything in perfect order.

The series uses this interactive instrument to propose children to play using imagination, learn to interact with others, organize and clarify thoughts and feelings, and build self-confidence to carry out new activities.
