Leeny's Upcoming Performances and News

 

NEWS FLASH!    

Leeny Del Seamonds stars in the international Television and DVD series Ribert & Robert's WonderWorld, a children's program encouraging viewers to "love to learn and learn to love in everything you do!."  In the series, Leeny plays Leeny the Story Performer and writes/performs her own segments.  Sixty-five episodes currently air in over 120 PBS stations throughout the country and worldwide.  Leeny has begun writing her portion of an additional 13 episodes that have been ordered. 

 

This acclaimed series won a 2006 iParenting Media Winner Award for “the best in family friendly television that entertains, educates and inspires children and adults,” and The Coalition for Quality Children's Media (KIDS FIRST) has endorsed the series with its ALL-STAR rating, the organization's highest award (for the second year in a row). MarVista Entertainment is the worldwide distributor for both television and DVD's outside the United States and successfully presented the series at the MIP Conference in Cannes, France, in October 2005.

 

NEWS!!!   Ribert & Robert's WonderWorld has been airing on Kid's Central (MediaCorp TV 12), the largest and most popular children's television station in Singapore and China.  In addition, the show is offered through Google Video and is broadcast in over 170 countries worldwide on AFN, the American Forces Network.

Ribert & Robert's WonderWorld has successfully been renegotiated to broadcast on commercial television stations across the U.S. while retaining all public television relationships. R & R airs on its first FOX affiliated station, FOX 23 in Maine at 7:00 AM on Sunday mornings.  Few Public Television programs are able to cross over to the entertainment networks, which is another testimony to the very wide appeal of our show!

 

TODDLER NEWS:  We are enjoying our beautiful granddaughter, Katie.  She creates new sentences and learns new things to do daily, exploring every possibility!  Pop-Pop Grant and Lita Leeny ("Lita" is short for abuelita, little grandmother) are thrilled.  We especially enjoy reading, singing, laughing, and playing with her.  Let the 'spoiling with love' continue!
