What's the Story?
BING is about a preschool bunny named Bing and his friends Sula, Pando, Coco and Charlie, as they navigate the world around them and learn about themselves and each other. Guided by adult stuffed animal caregivers, Flop, Padget, and Amma, the children are comforted, challenged, and entertained as they navigate toddler life. Learning through play and exploration is a huge theme of the show, as the characters face everyday situations that sparks tier curiosity. There is always something fun and new to do in Bing's world, and he's always "round the corner, not far away" from viewers at home.
