Thank you! ![]() More praise for Justin Time"4 stars [highest rating]: It is refreshing to see a new series for this age group featuring a male character and with a focus on imagination and education. [The Pancake Express] contains accurate scientific and geographic information, but it is presented as part of the adventure...Highly recommended." - CM Magazine "Remember as a kid when possibilities seemed endless and a cardboard box could transform into a fort, a tank, a mountain, or a Super Mario pipe?… Justin Time is a new animated program for pre-schoolers that brings that boundless creativity to the small screen. The show centers on Justin, a young boy who imagines himself traveling around the world at different points in history." - Torontoist "Tired of preschool cartoons spending an inordinate amount of time on boring matching games, talking down its audience, or afraid of going out on a creative limb? If so, then meet Justin Time...The series is about trust and teamwork -whether nestled deep in the jungle or perched high on top of a snowcapped mountain - and the many other elements of friendship most conducive to having a great time (and learning a thing or two along the way). Justin Time encourages a kind of freewheeling imagination that hopes to leave the didactic and lazy storytelling of yester-animation in the dust." - Animation Insider |
