The Backyardigans

The Backyardigans is an animated musical-adventure series on Nickelodeon for children ages 2-5. In each episode, the show's five high-spirited preschool friends - Uniqua, Pablo, Tyrone, Tasha, and Austin - rely on their vivid imaginations to transform their backyard into a fantastical 3-D landscape, and together they embark on amazing epic journeys.

The Backyardigans exhibit will feature fun, interactive exhibit elements that encourage children to stretch their imaginary play muscles - turning everyday objects and environments into amazing adventures. Children and their families will sing, dance, and play with The Backyardigans in their own backyard adventures!

Wonder Pets

Wonder Pets! is an exciting Nickelodeon show for preschoolers. Each episode follows the adventures of three classroom pets - Linny the Guinea Pig, Ming-Ming Duckling, and Turtle Tuck - who travel around the globe helping to rescue animals who need their help. Like real preschoolers, these three unlikely heroes don't have any actual super powers, but by working together they can conquer any obstacle: "What gonna work? Teamwork!"

The Wonder Pets! exhibit will feature fund, engaging and immersive exhibit elements that will invite children and families to work on their critical thinking and problem-solving skills. Children and families will learn about teamwork and the value of helping others by joining the Wonder Pets on rescue adventures to save endangered animals.
