Peep and the Big Wide World is a Canadian animated series created by Danish-Canadian animator Kaj Pindal and based on a series of National Film Board of Canada shorts he made, which were narrated by Peter Ustinov. Seeking to teach math, nature and basic science concepts to young children, the show was a co-production between PBS station WGBH Boston and 9 Story Media Group, in association with TVOntario and Discovery Kids.The show is narrated by Joan Cusack and follows three main characters, who are a baby chicken named Peep and his friends, a blue duckling named Quack and a red robin named Chirp. Most episodes involve the three newborn birds learning something new about the world around them and solving some problem or having some adventure related to it. However, things are made ever more difficult (read: hilarious) for the little birds by their simple naivety and ignorance of how things work due to being, well, babies. But, there are many recurring plotlines, including Chirp trying to learn how to fly, Quack and his singing, or Peep and Chirp trying to get to Green Island in the nearby pond. Every episode runs for 9 minutes. Afterwards, there is always a 2-minute live-action segment with real kids exploring and demonstrating the topic that Peep and his friends learned about in the episode.The series debuted in 2004 on Discovery Kids. It also aired in the United States on PBS Kids and TLC's Ready Set Learn block, as well as TVOntario in its origin country of Canada. It initially concluded in 2007 after running for 3 seasons and 49 episodes, but was resurrected in 2010 for 2 more seasons. The revival ran until 2011, adding 11 more episodes to the show's episode count.The series has an official Youtube channel.
