Saving Seeds/Onward and Mossward
nature cat

Tue, Jun 23 8:00 P.M. NH Kids (11.5)  

Sunny the sunflower is so pretty in the sunny sunlight. But, winter is approaching fast, and Daisy's plants are done for the season. Oh no! Fear not, crew! Granny Bunny has a way that could help the gang enjoy a sunflower a lot like Sunny next spring. All they have to do is keep some seeds from their favorite plants, dry them, and keep them safe until planting time. After they plant Sunny's seeds the next spring, they'll have to wait to find out if Sunny Jr. will be as amazing as Sunny. Then, it's time for a summery sunflower-y dance party. Oh yeah! When an eagle snatches a map from our gang after a lengthy treasure hunt, they can't find their way home. Oh no! But, Nature Cat has an old camping trick up his sleeve: moss only grows on the north side of trees, and home is north, so it's onward and homeward! Any minute, these hikers will be home sweet home. Wait a tick. They're right back where they started! No way! Looks like it's time to investigate where and how moss really grows, but will our gang be able to get home if the camping trick isn't true?

About Nature Cat:

NATURE CAT follows Fred, a house cat who dreams of exploring the great outdoors.

In each episode, once his family leaves for the day, Fred transforms into Nature Cat, "backyard explorer extraordinaire." Nature Cat can't wait to get outside for a day of backyard nature excursions and bravery, but there's one problem: He's still a house cat with no instincts for nature.

Like many of today's kids, Nature Cat is eager and enthusiastic about outside activities, but is at times intimidated by them.

With the help of his animal friends, Nature Cat embarks on action-packed adventures that include exciting missions full of nature investigation, "aha" discovery moments and humor, all while inspiring children to go outside and "play the show."
