What Kids Can Learn from “Pretzel and the Puppies”

Tony Wagner, Ed.D., senior research fellow, Learning Policy Institute, and author of the book “Creating Innovators: The Making of Young People Who Will Change the World,” recently partnered with Apple TV+ and HarperCollins for the new original series for kids, “Pretzel and the Puppies.”

In the series, Pretzel and the puppies set out to “make their bark” by making their neighborhood a better place for their friends and neighbors. Wagner worked alongside the executive producers from Apple TV+ and HarperCollins to help develop the series and infuse lessons around the importance of asking questions and innovating to find new solutions to problems.

A preschool series based on the titular canine character of the book Pretzel, by Curious George creators Margret and H.A. Rey, “Pretzel and the Puppies” is a new story about the modern dog family led by stay-at-home dad Pretzel (Mark Duplass), his five adorable Dachshund puppies, and mom Greta (Nasim Pedrad), the mayor of Muttgomery.

“Pretzel and the Puppies” is part of a kids’ changemakers initiative from Apple TV+ that brings world renowned education leaders together with the world’s most creative storytellers to create inspiring and enriching original series for kids. The initiative encourages imagination, self-confidence and critical thinking through Apple Original series.
