Discovery Family Channel and Discovery Familia today announced the launch of Hanni and the Wild Woods, a brand-new nature-focused animated series, set to premiere in the U.S. this coming April.
From Korean creator Minah Eom, Hanni and the Wild Woods is edutainment with a strong focus on fun.
This is a series about appreciating nature and teaches kids about the wonderful world surrounding us. Each episode is filled with original music and themes about helping animals, insects, plants, and the importance of nature conservation. Hanni is the leader of the Forest Friends, who cares deeply about everyone and wants her friends in the Wild Woods to live in harmony. While Hanni and the Forest Friends are having fun, these beautifully animated characters are stewards of the environment and encourage the audience to learn and do their part in helping protect our planet.
“Hanni and the Wild Woods is a series developed with love over many years by a dedicated mother with a clear goal and purpose,” said Corenna Smith, Director of Content and Marketing, Discovery Family Channel. “We’re so excited to bring this show full of beautiful stories about friendship, love, bravery, hope, and luck to children, encouraging respect of the environment and nature.”
“The concept sprung from a desire to give my two daughters a meaningful gift that can remind them of me forever,” said Minah Eom, Creator, Hanni and the Wild Woods. “In turn, they provided me with the motivation and inspiration in every moment of my creative work and made everything possible.”
Produced by TOBEIT Global Corp., Hanni and the Wild Woods will premiere in April on Discovery Family Channel and in Spanish for Hispanic audiences in the U.S. on Discovery Familia.
