The children’s series Earth to Luna!, which inspires kids to discover the world of science, has launched a brochure and online content to help its young viewers understand the coronavirus pandemic.

Earth to Luna!’s creators, Pinguim Content, have produced the online brochure and content to help parents explain the virus and its implications to children. With scientific facts, clips, songs and the episode “One Hand Washes Another,” the material will be shared through the brand’s social media channels and subscriber lists in three languages—Portuguese, English and Spanish.

In Earth to Luna!, the titular 6-year-old is passionate about science and loves to do experiments and play make-believe. Through her investigations, she inspires kids’ curiosity for topics related to chemistry, physics, biology and astronomy. A sixth season of Earth to Luna! is coming soon. The series is distributed by Monster Entertainment.

Celia Catunda, Pinguim Content’s director and co-founder, said: “With the arrival of the coronavirus pandemic the dynamic of homes with little ones has changed dramatically. With school suspended, parents working from home, and children confined to small spaces, families are having to adapt like never before. We want to help them to be more prepared to understand the situation with the scientific perceptiveness and reason needed to overcome this crisis and take the transformative lessons learned into an improved world.”
