LazyTown is a fresh new television series designed to engage and motivate kids to make healthier choices in their everyday lives. The show is action-adventure on a small scale, encompassing movement, music, and comedy in an entertaining story.
LazyTown is designed to give kids the power to go play, move, dance, sing, make new choices and feel really good about it.
In the show, Stephanie (an optimistic 8-year-old with bright-pink hair) comes to LazyTown and meets its zany mix of townspeople, including the world's laziest super-villain, Robbie Rotten. Fortunately for Stephanie, LazyTown is also watched over by Sportacus, an athletic, super-fit super-hero who runs, jumps, and flips his way across LazyTown while helping the inhabitants battle Robbie's latest lazy schemes.
The other kids of LazyTown are curious, playful, and like Stephanie, actively engaged in figuring out their world. Each has strengths and weaknesses, just like real kids. These kids symbolize the challenges and opportunities that real kids face in everyday kid life. Ziggy likes candy just a little too much; Stingy just can't seem to share; Pixel is glued to video games; Trixie finds it difficult to follow rules; and Stephanie has trouble navigating between making a healthy choice or opting for the easy way out.
LazyTown may have the laziest name on television, but it's jam-packed with action, energy, and a powerful message that tells kids that "they can do it."
This exciting new show is brought to you by Nick Jr.
