What's the Story?
LITTLE CHARMERS is the story of three young friends -- Hazel (voiced by Addison Holley), Posie (Matilda Gilbert), and Lavender (Alexa Torrington) -- who team up to solve problems with their budding magical abilities. From rescuing frog princes to unlocking the secret behind a magical outfit, these three charmers-in-the-making learn that even when things don't work out right the first time (and they often don't), there's no problem that friendship and a little creativity can't solve.
Is It Any Good?
This series is as charming as its title suggests, thanks in large part to the cute main characters and their comical mishaps. Magical talents aside, they're much like the preschool girls to whom the show is geared: well-intentioned, eager to help, and always brimming with ideas. But, just as in the real world, Hazel, Lavender, and Posie learn very quickly that solving problems usually isn't a one-step process.
Kids will enjoy the fun challenges the girls must face in Little Charmers, and parents will be happy to see that every story is rich in examples of characters with strong self-esteem and the perseverance to see tasks through. Along the way are frequent reminders that learning and growing are lengthy processes that require patience and occasionally call for the help of someone who's been there, such as a parent.
