A new children's media company, A Squared Entertainment, will debut its educational children's webisodes this fall. The 3-5 minute shows will feature stars like Warren Buffett, Gisele Bundchen, Martha Stewart and Carl Sagan teaching children about the world around them in a fun way.
Each celebrity has their own topic of webisodes, focusing on finance, the environment, creativity, or science. Earth-loving model, wife of star quarterback Tom Brady, and mommy-to-be, Gisele Bundchen will play an animated supermodel by day, superhero protector of the environment by night in “GiGi & the Green Team.” The series’ female superhero will educate, entertain and inspire girls to be eco-friendly.
Buffett and Bundchen's interactive worlds premiere this fall while Stewart and Sagan's shows will debut in Spring 2010. Find out more at A Squared's homepage, www.a2entertain.com.
