Looking for Single Parents of Toddler(s) for TV Documentary for PBS
Stations
A new documentary from award-winning producers on the health and growth
of young children is underway, specifically we are focusing on toddler
age. We are looking for a mix of families of diverse economic and
social backgrounds who have compelling, heartfelt stories and
experiences to share. Please be expressive and willing to appear on
camera with your children.
Below are some possible scenarios; however, if there is another story
that you feel is right, please share that with us, as well.
-Single Career Parent with toddler(s)
-Parent with two or more toddlers with different personalities &
behavior. Can be biological, adopted, or twins.
-Toddler that might have older siblings who are expressive and
observant about toddler-aged brother or sister.
-Diverse group of mothers or fathers of toddlers who meet regularly to
discuss the joys and challenges of raising young children.
The objective of this documentary is to explore how parents and
caregivers are raising toddlers to be happy, healthy and confident. We
know it isn't easy, we all face individual stressors. We would love to
hear about your challenges, victories and personal insights about your
child's development. Tell us about the tools you use to communicate
with your child, your routines and discipline techniques, etc. What are
your biggest concerns about raising a young child today, and what are
your hopes for their future?
If this strikes a chord, please email Shareen at:
.
Send contact info, short description of your family, including ages of
parent and kids, observations of how your toddler is growing and
expanding his/her skills, and why you'd like to be considered for this
documentary. Also, please send a photo of you and your family. Toddler
Groups should send description of the mothers or fathers and toddlers,
what you are learning together and why it is so meaningful.
*Please respond quickly to be considered, as we are working under a
tight production deadline. (If selected, we would spend 1-2 days with
your family sometime during the first two weeks of November.)
