About The
ItsIts - Children's Edutainment in Motion |
| |
|
The
ItsIts are gender neutral characters who’s amusing
antics “edutain” (educate and entertain) kid’s. The
ItsIts are attention-grabbing and offer stimulating
programs that are exciting, practical and help
children connect their feelings to their behavior.
The ItsIts were created to help kids develop
emotional balance between six basic human
personality traits, Self-Love, Self-Power, Intimacy,
Solitude, Equality and Influence.
Each ItsIt represents one of these traits.
Balance between the personality traits, inherent in
everyone, impact the way we think, feel and act
throughout a lifetime. When animated, the symbols in
the stomach of each ItsIt, offers a visual learning
experience. The symbols act and react to
the different situations, conflicts and
circumstances that arise daily on the Island of ItsItville, the home of the ItsIts. Lurking on the
island, deep in the muddy swamp is K-OS, another
character who is only happy when creating emotional
imbalance. Children absorb and incorporate methods
for dealing with this imbalance, thus becoming more
resilient, confident and more skilled when making
decisions and choices.

keyboard for the ItsIt band. My hidden secret … I
pretend to be a superhero. |

protect my inner self. I don’t like sarcasm or mean

gotta think.” I play the fiddle and saxophone. My
hidden secret … sometimes I wet the bed. |

I’m
K-OS, and I’m a
Bully – I represent Confusion and Turmoil
I’m tough, intimidating
and uncaring. I chew on rocks and spit. Whenever I
want something, I just bully someone until I get it.
Those ItsIts and their music make me want to puke.
Me and my bully friends plan to take over ItsItville.
Those ItsIts won’t be singing then. My favorite
saying is, “Hit the dirt.” My hidden secret … I wish
I could have as much fun as the ItsIts. |

I’m
Shrink, the
wise, but not so old, Owl – I represent
Wisdom
My wisdom and insight
is exceptional when it comes to understanding
emotions, thoughts and behavior. I can be somewhat
of a grump when my routine is upset. I’ve been
living peacefully in my tree, but that all changed
when the ItsIts came to me. Why, oh why, did they
pick my tree to build their treehouse, mercy me. My
favorite saying, since the ItsIts came into my life,
“Lock your lips.” My hidden secret … I enjoy sharing
my tree with those little ItsIt critters, even if
they are noisy. |
