JEI TV in South Korea, meanwhile, went for the art-themed show <em>Box Yourself<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p><em>Odd Squad<\/em> is about two kids, Agent Olive and Agent Otto, who work for a government agency run by children in suits who are equipped with the world&#8217;s most advanced and unpredictable gadgetry.\u00a0<em>Chirp<\/em>, meanwhile, follows best friends Chirp, Squawk and Tweet, who use their imaginations and everyday objects to get themselves into and out of adventures and sticky situations. In <em>Box Yourself<\/em>, host \u00d8istein teaches kids about art\u00a0and shows them how to recycle, upcycle, draw, build and paint.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, Bomanbridge is working with the producers of some of the shows to co-develop formats for the Asian market and eventually take them worldwide. <em>Odd Squad<\/em>, <em>Chirp<\/em> and <em>Giver<\/em> all come from Sinking Ship Entertainment. <em>Box Yourself<\/em> is produced by Earthtree Productions.<\/p>\n<p>Sonia Fleck, the CEO of Bomanbridge Media, said, \u201cBomanbridge brings the best in edutainment from around the world to children in Asia: <em>Odd Squad<\/em>,<em> Giver<\/em>,<em> Chirp<\/em> and <em>Box<\/em> <em>Yourself<\/em> are award-winnings kids\u2019 shows that stimulate, engage and empower while entertaining.
