From PBS to your inbox: A real invitation for real providers
Jul 07, 2025 5:21 pm
Hi, I’m Sierra. I made a PBS show that helps kids actually nap. 👋🏽
I’m Sierra L. Boone: creator of The Nap Time Show™.
We’re a rest-centered, family-produced, joyful kids' show that airs on PBS across Michigan and streams on Amazon Fire Stick TV.
But I’m more excited about what we’re building next...and I want your input.
👉 Join a small group call to help shape the future of kids' media for daycares
(we filmed some segments of our arts and crafts series at Friendship Childcare Center in Detroit, MI. Want free promo for your center in our show? Join the call!)
What started out as just an idea I had from seeing overstimulating "kids content" (spoiler alert: not everything targeting kids is FOR kids) soon turned into media coverage, award-winning storytelling, and eventually brought us to where we are today: the leading children's series that actuallypromotes rest for children (and the grownups who care for them).
And yes, we air on PBS across the entire state of Michigan. We also stream on Amazon Fire Stick, Apple TV, and Amazon TV. Which is pretty freakin' cool and a dream come true! But I actually wanna tell you about something even more exciting...
🎬 It’s called Fruit Snack Streams.
It’s a first-of-its-kind classroom content platform built specifically to help early learning teachers manage transitions, reduce burnout, and calm the chaos of the day.
I started building it after learning that (while parents are cool and all) childcare providers are the ones who actually *get* it.
You *get* the value of rest for development.
You *get* why social-emotional learning HAS to happen at an early age.
Who have been the ones asking us to bring our characters and support early literacy? Childcare providers.
Who have been the ones critically thinking about the crap-filled media targeting kids? Childcare providers.
Who is actively (and I mean EVERY DAY) making a point to pour into the WHOLE child? Childcare providers!
I don’t want to build Fruit Snack Streams for providers. I want to build it with you.
That’s why I’m holding real conversations with folks working in centers and home daycares just like yours. I want to hear about your routines, your rest time, your chaotic moments...and what kind of support would actually help.
🗓️ Want to hop on a 20-minute Zoom and talk about your experience?
→ Pick a time that works for you:
Whether you're center-based, home-based, in a leadership role or just holding it down every day with the babies; I want your voice in the room. I’ll even send you a little thank-you gift for joining (plus you'll get first dibs on the FSS pilot program 👀).
Thanks for your time. Xoxo
