Series Description
"""The primary goal of WHERE IN THE WORLD IS CARMEN SANDIEGO? is to expose young viewers to the rich texture of geography -- to show that geography is culture, customs, and history -- not just maps and memorization. We want to motivate children to become interested and aware of the world [in] all of its [multicultural] facets. We plan to help viewers define what geography is and broaden that vision. Carmen's entertaining format captures children's attention which is the first step to stimulate further learning of geography. ""WHERE IN THE WORLD IS CARMEN SANDIEGO? is public television's new daily geography game show for 8 to 13 year olds, based on the bestselling computer game published by Broderbund Software. The series is designed to entertain, as well as motivate youngsters to learn more about geography. Carmen combines geographical facts with cultural information, a chase, music, humor, animation, celebrities and more.""-- 1992 Peabody Awards entry form.
