Each episode of <em>Abby\u2019s Farm<\/em> focuses on a different farming-related activity\u2014from milking cows to learning how corn is planted\u2014and also revolves around a different number.<\/p>\n<p>Designed to complement <em>Abby\u2019s Farm<\/em>, BGM has also produced a short-form learning-focused series called <em>Count With Abby!<\/em> The two-minute videos will expand on the numeracy theme and feature an original intro, followed by three counting moments gleaned from the main series.<\/p>\n<p>In other BGM news, <em>Backyard Beats<\/em> is set to premiere on TVO on May 20. The new series, which explores music from all angles, will also be available for streaming on TVOkids.com.<\/p>\n<p>Marney Malabar, the director of Kids TV at TVO, said: \u201cWe\u2019re so excited to introduce <em>Abby\u2019s Farm<\/em> to our viewers. By familiarizing them with the importance of farming, the environment and community at this young age, the show will help kids develop the awareness they need to become more conscientious adults.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Marlo Miazga, the new CEO of BGM Inc, said: \u201c<em>Abby\u2019s Farm<\/em> throws the spotlight on an industry and a lifestyle that\u2019s often overlooked in our increasingly urban world. It\u2019s important for kids to know how the food they eat arrives on their plate, particularly at a time when sustainable food production is so high on the global agenda. Once again, TVOkids has commissioned a great show that will entertain, educate and engage young audiences.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Toronto-based BGM has been commissioned to produce the tentatively titled preschool series Abby\u2019s Farm for TVOkids.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1033,"featured_media":18552,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[21],"tags":[5457,5458,1445],"class_list":["post-18551","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-abbys-farm","tag-bgm","tag-tvokids","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>TVOkids Orders Abby\u2019s Farm from BGM - TVKIDS<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/tvokids-orders-abbys-farm-from-bgm\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"TVOkids Orders Abby\u2019s Farm from BGM - TVKIDS\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Toronto-based BGM has been commissioned to produce the tentatively titled preschool series Abby\u2019s Farm for TVOkids.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/tvokids-orders-abbys-farm-from-bgm\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"TVKIDS\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2020-05-13T14:00:38+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2020-05-13T16:03:31+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2017\/07\/bgm-logo-0520.png\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"400\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"220\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/png\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Chelsea Regan\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Chelsea Regan\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"1 minute\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/tvokids-orders-abbys-farm-from-bgm\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/tvokids-orders-abbys-farm-from-bgm\/\",\"name\":\"TVOkids Orders Abby\u2019s Farm from BGM - TVKIDS\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2020-05-13T14:00:38+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2020-05-13T16:03:31+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/#\/schema\/person\/2a2c6d8fb3c7c8b4220b8877ecffb79a\"},\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/tvokids-orders-abbys-farm-from-bgm\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/tvokids-orders-abbys-farm-from-bgm\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/tvokids-orders-abbys-farm-from-bgm\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"TVOkids Orders Abby\u2019s Farm from BGM\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/\",\"name\":\"TVKIDS\",\"description\":\"\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"SearchAction\",\"target\":{\"@type\":\"EntryPoint\",\"urlTemplate\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/?s={search_term_string}\"},\"query-input\":\"required name=search_term_string\"}],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\"},{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/#\/schema\/person\/2a2c6d8fb3c7c8b4220b8877ecffb79a\",\"name\":\"Chelsea Regan\",\"description\":\"Chelsea Regan is the managing editor of World Screen.
