Word World premieres on August 6 at 3pm

This August, as the kids prepare to go back to school, Discovery Familia enters the fascinating universe of words with Word World, an innovative series that introduces young viewers to the English language and reading skills and sets the groundwork for a bilingual generation. Word World premieres on August 6 at 3pm and will air Monday through Friday in the same time slot.Using advanced technology, colorful images and a dynamic storyline, the animated series Word World stimulates a love for words and reading. The friendly animal cast presents a marvelous world full of adventure and situations centered on characters and objects made of letters spelling out their names in English. The technique exposes children not only to English words and sounds, but also to the concept that letters form words representing real-world objects. The winner of three Emmy awards, Word World was originally created to motivate English-speaking children to become interested in words as a prelude to a love of reading. With the collaboration of Mónica Fuhrken, an educational consultant and expert in teaching English, Discovery Familia gives the series a new twist by dubbing some parts of the narrative into Spanish and leaving others in English. The network also brings audiences the next season of the hit series Hi-5, premiering August 6 at 7pm and continuing to air Monday through Friday. With moms in mind, the Discovery Familia initiative includes a series of informative spots hosted by Jeannette Torres-Álvarez, early childhood expert and Discovery Familia’s brand ambassador. In these on-air capsules, Jeannette will share practical tips for kids and their moms for making the transition back to school easier.
