Every morning, "The Sunny Side Up Show" greets preschoolers and their families as they rise and shine and prepare for the day ahead. In this live broadcast, hosts Kelly, Sean, Dennisha and Liz alternate weeks and join Chica the Chicken to create a warm and welcoming environment where families can gather to share their local weather, birthdays, and even show and tell with Sprout.  Favorite Sprout characters like Elmo and Barney stop by the Sunshine Barn from time to time, as well as other special guests, such as a chef, librarian or firefighter.

"The Sunny Side Up Show" balances playful, spontaneous fun with interactive learning and creates a welcoming environment for preschoolers and their parents to spend some morning time together. In addition to introducing children to educational concepts through weekly themes, the concepts of calendars, day of the week and weather are reinforced on a daily basis. Through birthday card submissions and other interactive activities, creativity and craft skills are exercised.

What's Your News? 
What's Your News? is a television news show that helps children transition from their home and family environment into the wider world.  Imagine the nightly news with its studio and anchormen, but in this instance the newsroom is staffed by ants. Instead of real life politics and world events, the news covered is kids' news, direct from their homes.  The children's stories might be anything such as the arrival of a new pet, the ability to play a new tune on a piano, doing a good deed, having a new hairstyle, etc. The stories are homely, down-to-earth, relevant to the audience, and pretty much universal.

PICME
PICME puts children directly into the story alongside animal friends Juno, Gerty, Banjo, Umi, Clarence and Neville. Parents upload their children’s photos via SproutOnline.com to be superimposed onto an animated body to give them a chance at a starring role in the show.  Creators: Mark Cumberton, John Rice and Alan Shannon

Mr. Mailman
Mr. Mailman travels around the world to deliver letters and gifts to Sprout friends and family in locations that are as close as the local library or as far as the nighttime sky. Through digital still photography, and the integration of simple props, graphics and a live-action element, Mr. Mailman travels to a variety of locales where he encounters unique local terrain, weather, animals and obstacles while delivering the mail. Mr. Mailman, already a popular character on the Sprout network, also delivers birthday cards each day to The Sunny Side Up Show. Whatever Mr. Mailman delivers, it is sure to be packaged with laughs, facts and fun.

Noodle and Doodle
When a preschooler wants to make something nutritious and delicious in the kitchen or create a fun craft to celebrate a special event in their life, it’s Noodle and Doodle to the rescue!  With his friends Noodle, a loveable puppet who likes to help in the kitchen, and Doodle, a virtual, electronic friend, host Sean leads real preschoolers and viewers at home to make all kinds of kid-friendly creations.  Sprout viewers discover nutritional recipes and clever crafts that families can create together using materials from around the home.   All the cooking and crafting takes place inside a whimsical double-decker bus where Sean and his helpers demonstrate step-by-step “how to” creations in an engaging, simple way that families can recreate at home.  Also along for the ride is Sean’s dog Doggity, an adorable beagle with the special ability to take viewers into his imaginary, animated world where culinary canines use teamwork to solve problems and cook up treats in their own kitchen during a segment on Noodle and Doodle called Doggity’s (created in conjunction with Ka-chew!, a division of Klasky Csupo, the creators of The Simpsons and Rugrats).
