BACKYARD SCIENCE rips science out of the classroom and hurls it into the real world. It is targeted at 6-12 year olds and features children from around the world having fun with science experiments that any child can do at home. Easily versioned for any territory, the series includes local kids hosting from a "virtual" studio, while the gang in the field gives dry science a shake-up, showing other kids that science is part of everyday life – and in the right hands, fun.
Beyond Distribution and Penguin Television launched the series at MIPCOM this year at an invitation-only event, and the title has met with much interest.
