MultiVu Video Feed: TELEVISION'S ONLY LIVE PRESCHOOL MORNING SHOW SERVES THINGS SUNNY SIDE UP

NEW YORK, September 18 /PRNewswire/ -- There's no shortage of competition when it comes to national morning shows for adults that offer up the usual helping of news and lifestyle segments. But that landscape just got bigger with the addition of television's only live morning show for preschoolers. The Sunny Side Up Show, PBS KIDS SPROUT'S first foray into live programming, is an energized and interactive environment where preschoolers and their parents can gather each morning to learn, share and laugh. Two hosts will rotate weekly and partner up with Chica, a witty, playful chicken. The interactive show will feature guest appearances from loveable characters like Sesame Street®'s Big Bird and Elmo, everyone's favorite purple dinosaur Barney? and even SPROUT'S very own Nina from The Good Night Show or Miles and Banjo from the Let's Go Show!

SproutOnline.com plays a paramount role in the show encouraging preschoolers and their parents to share weather reports, submit artwork or send in pictures. The live aspect allows for that interaction to be immediate and unique, creating a true sense of community as the hosts and Chica share back with viewer-- submitted birthday cards, artwork, contest submissions, emails and more.

The Sunny Side Up show rounds out SPROUT'S unique 24-hour programming line-up that follows the day of the preschooler from breakfast to bedtime. Whether kids are starting the day with the live morning show, discovering new things each afternoon with The Let's Go Show or winding down for bed at night with The Good Night Show, SPROUT is always there to share in what's important to preschoolers and their families.

The Sunny Side Up Show airs from 9am-12pm EST each weekday morning... live! For more information, visit http://www.sproutonline.com
