Our long range goal is to have educational videos to help children learn which plants and which animals are in each ecosystem of the Maya areas: savannas, hills (especially karst geology), aguadas, wetlands (riversides, mangrove swamps, etc.). We start with the Maya Lowland areas (Peten and everything around it): Once a generous considerate individual, family, NGO, or foundation provides funds, we can increase our team size and create more impactful videos. But we wanted to go ahead and start with initial concepts (once funds come in we will use Maya musical instruments, have more action, etc.).
We are starting to ask for reviews by people: Sofia Monzon, mother of Jade Torres, kindly did a cellphone video of her daughter watching the new video. Would help greatly to have more feedback (what the parents would like added or subtracted; what the children would like added or subtracted).
So here is Episode 2 being watched by a young Guatemalan child, age 4. She does not know that the music was provided by her aunt (the sister of her father).
Here is the actual video, Spanish edition (2 entertaining minutes on riverside creatures of Guatemala, Central America).
Please send your reviews to us at MayanToons FLAAR.org Just put the symbol into the empty space and close the spaces. It helps to know the age of the child that watched it. Your comments can be in English or Spanish.
