What's the Story?
Buns is an energetic bunny who dreams of being a superhero. She wears a cape and is convinced kindness is her superpower -- and she never fails to prove it to her friends. Along with her more analytical sister and supportive friends, Superbuns finds unique and creative ways to help those in need. Her kindness and selflessness always lead to unexpected yet positive results for all.
Is It Any Good?
Punchy humor and exaggerated comedy bring in viewers who might otherwise be turned off by what could seem like preachy content. Superbuns' cheeky scripts turn explicit lessons into the stories' high points, often showing unexpected positive results from altruistic actions (expected, most likely, if you're the co-viewer). Superbuns' excitement about kindness is bound to inspire children to take initiative and find ways to collaborate with others. Its heightened and, at times, absurd comedy is unusual for a preschool show and sometimes serves as an allegory to discuss important themes like acceptance and prejudice. These positive lessons will be especially well suited for the cognitive development of older preschoolers who can discuss the show with their caretaker.
