magine you’re a little polar bear who’s just left the Arctic<br />
and arrived in a place where grass and trees grow!<br />
This is what happens to Claude, a little ball of fun and fur!<br />
The three-year-old and his family have left their icy home<br />
in Little Snowington for the bustling town of Bearhampton,<br />
way on the other side of the world. Bearhampton is<br />
quite a culture shock for Claude. To begin with, it’s strange<br />
to be suddenly the only little polar bear in a town full of<br />
brown bears and grizzly bears, koalas and pandas.<br />
Things that most Bearhamptonites don’t even notice anymore<br />
intrigue him: creatures and plants he’s never seen before,<br />
cars and buses, and especially all the colors he had never<br />
even dreamed existed! There’s something new to marvel at<br />
every day. Butterflies that look neither like butter nor flies,<br />
but like flying flowers ... sticky stuff called honey and that<br />
tastes so good ... something called “dancing,” where it’s<br />
OK to wave your arms around, kick your legs and make<br />
funny motions ... and sports, where Claude introduces<br />
tray tobogganing to the delight of all ...<br />
In each episode, Claude tackles a new aspect of his surroundings.<br />
He often talks directly to the camera and the audience<br />
at home. He discovers that grass tickles and raindrops<br />
slide off his fur... and that if you build an igloo in Bearhampton,<br />
it’ll melt before you can move in! He’s particularly fascinated<br />
by the things he never saw in Snowington, like roller<br />
skates, pumpkins and TV sets. Even though he’s sometimes<br />
bewildered by all the gadgets and the many new challenges<br />
facing him, he always keeps forging ahead!<br />
Based on the books by David Wojtowycz, “Fun with Claude”<br />
is produced by distinguished U.K. animation firms Red &<br />
Blue, headed by Marion Edwards, and Dot to Dot, managed<br />
by Jo Killingley, in coproduction with Disney Channel U.K.<br />
for <strong>ZDF</strong> and <strong>ZDF</strong> <strong>Enterprises</strong>. It celebrates differences and<br />
encourages youngsters to consider their surroundings more<br />
closely. Pre-schoolers will eagerly<br />
join Claude as he discovers new<br />
animals or objects, customs or<br />
events!<br />
