Fun Freetime: Creative Galaxy

On Tuesday, February 7, the award-winning Amazon Original Kids Series Creative Galaxy debuts “Heart Day,” a lovable new Valentine’s Day special for kids and families all across the country, on Prime Video!

 

In “Heart Day,” Epiphany (Kira Gelineau, Dear Viola) is ready to show her love with a special performance on Groovopolis, but she accidently ruins her costume before the show! She and Arty (Meesha Contreras) fly into the Creative Galaxy for a solution and, together, they help all his friends along the way learn that everyone has their own special way of saying “I heart you!” Samantha Bee (Full Frontal with Samantha Bee) and Jason Jones (The Daily Show) guest star as Arty’s parents, and Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter Lisa Loeb lends her voice as Melody.

 

Amazon’s award-winning Creative Galaxy from Out of the Blue Enterprises, with Angela C. Santomero (Blue’s Clues, Super Why!, Daniel Tiger’s Neighborhood) serving as Creator and Executive Producer and Samantha Freeman as Executive Producer, is a make-along, create-along art adventure series for preschoolers. Animated by 9 Story Entertainment, the series follows Arty, an adorable alien artist, and Epiphany, his inspirational sidekick, on their adventures through the Creative Galaxy as they solve problems through art. To give kids and parents the real-life tools they need to recreate Arty’s experience, a live-action piece at the end of each animated episode takes families through the craft project Arty showcased in the galaxy. In 2015, Creative Galaxy received the Parents’ Choice Gold Award for Television (ages 3-5).

 

And there’s even more to love! Amazon and Kahootz, creators of Spirograph, Fashion Plates and other award-winning classic toys that engage and inspire, have teamed up to further inspire preschoolers to extend Arty’s art-filled adventures from Creative Galaxy beyond the screen with Arty’s Tool Belt. For the first time, young fans of the series can create their own masterpieces, just like Arty, with this colorful new activity set that includes an adjustable tool belt, pads for coloring, doodling and painting with water, sticker book, crayons and paintbrushes. Arty’s Tool Belt activity set is now available on Amazon.com and includes free shipping for Prime members!
