Notes to parents: This program is full of lively stories, comic characters and happy endings. However, not all the plot lines are completely conflict-free. Parents of especially sensitive young viewers should read the film descriptions to their little ones before the show, so everyone knows what to expect. The film "Silent" features a very quick and not-very-scary reference to scary movies, and in "Herman's Heart," a little girl is lost and found
