Gullah Gullah Island

Hosts Ron and Natalie Daise, a warm and loving African-American couple who live on a sea island off the coast of South Carolina, open their home to preschoolers and their caregivers with a rich mix of song, games, stories, dance and humor. The sing-along series stimulates active participation from viewers around such familiar topics as birthdays, jokes, baby animals, rhyming, collecting and preparing food. With the Daises and their three children at the heart of the show, a variety of friends, relatives, neighborhood children and a bright-yellow tree frog named Binyah Binyah Pollywog (a full body puppet) form an extended family with viewers. Each episode also features an exploration of the unique culture of the Sea Island region with an up-close look at the community and its people, including artists, fishermen, weavers and farmers.
