Dragon Tales Web site
Sesame Workshop

Challenge

To translate Dragon Tales, PBS's award-winning, top-rated television series for pre-schoolers, into an interactive Web site that would turn pint-size fans of the on-air program to active participants in the character's online adventures.

Result

Max and Emmy, the program's only human characters, appear only on the home page so that pre-school "users" experienced true interactivity with Zak and Wheezie, Cassie, Ord and Quetzal. From Flash animation "webisodes" that allow kids to choose their favorite dragon and fly through the clouds, to Shockwave games that inspire creativity and indulge curiosity, to a caregivers section that educates grown-ups about the virtues of these lovable creatures, this site made "logging on" as much fun as "tuning in". It also furthered the popularity of this world-famous family of characters developed by Sesame Workshop.
