Children's Corner (El Rincón de los Niños) [Television Series]

Summary

Supported by Antioquia's Health Office, Colombia, the Children's Corner is a TV series dealing with children's mental health issues. The theme of the series, which began airing in 2001, is the promotion of attitudes and behaviours that foster better mental health. In order to address children as well as parents, the programme uses concrete and accessible language to dramatise everyday situations reflecting typical conflicts between adults and children. The programme does not advocate a single attitudinal or behavioural pattern. Rather, it provides children with the opportunity to voice their concerns and interests, which may otherwise be overlooked by adults.

The series, which is in Spanish, consists of 20 episodes of 24 minutes each.
