What's the Story?
Adapted from a popular Canadian children's magazine, CHIRP is a children's animated series about three birds who use their imaginations to go on great adventures. Chirp (Jacob Ewaniuk), Tweet (Brianna D'Aguanno), and Squawk (Adrian David Lloyd) are best friends who like to play together. With the help of their imaginations, they spend their afternoons doing amazing things, like traveling back to the Ice Age to meet a mammoth, and saving the city from strange mud slinging Unipigs. It's fun, but they often find themselves in unexpected predicaments. Armed with helpful advice from Sparky the dog, the feathered friends engineer everyday items that are delivered to them by the mail squirrel into useful tools that will help them.
Is It Any Good?
This colorful preschool series teaches lessons about problem-solving, teamwork, and friendship. It also underscores the importance of being inventive when looking for ways to resolve problems, and highlights how learning new things can be both helpful and fun.
Regardless of whether viewers are familiar with the magazine, Chirp spins relatable tales that are designed to encourage imaginative play. A lot of positive and educational messages are included, but they're delivered in a way that's both entertaining and engaging.
