Kids learn at school and also at home. And when they're at home, their parents also learn with them, so creating a show that caters to both audiences goes a long way.

Co-viewing simply defined is when parents consume media
simultaneously, with their children, and in the case of Television, it’s when parents actively watch TV with their kids and interact with them based on the content that is showcased.
