New Year Pause

The start of a new year allows everyone to take a moment for a fresh start, or at least to consider the possibility of new beginnings, and maybe even step away from the pressing events in the daily news.

While combing the archive for clips to post in the next several weeks, I saw a series of locally produced children’s programming as a welcome change. The University of Maine made the MPBN-hosted “La Bonne Aventure/The Good Adventure” series a bilingual 15-minute show. Each episode includes puppets, film, and cartoon sequences.

Two of the episodes are digitized and on the NHF website, posted here, for a few moments of “away” time.
