Kioka is a 3D animated series produced in Canada by Apartment 11 Productions, in cooperation with the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC), as well as TVA and Knowledge Networks. The show is aimed at preschool children and is broadcast on the Kidstream platform.

The premise of Kioka is the adventures of a small penguin named Kioka and her group of animal friends – a rabbit, a bear, and a squirrel – as they explore various environments and encounter new challenges. Each episode is structured around a particular theme or concept, such as sharing, cooperation, or problem-solving, which is explored through the actions and interactions of the characters.

The animation style of Kioka is bright, colorful, and engaging, with a focus on simple shapes and bold outlines that are easy for young children to identify and follow. The character designs are cute and cuddly, with each animal friend having a distinct personality and voice that adds to the overall charm of the series.

Perhaps the most striking feature of Kioka is its use of sound. The show is heavily reliant on audio cues, with characters often communicating through non-verbal sounds and movements. For example, Kioka communicates through chirps and squeaks, while the bear grunts and snuffles, and the rabbit twitches its nose. This approach is not only effective in engaging young children but also allows for the show to be easily understood by audiences around the world, regardless of language or cultural differences.

The stories themselves are relatively simple and straightforward, with a clear narrative arc that is easy for children to follow. Each episode begins with the characters discovering a new environment or challenge, such as trying to find their way out of a maze or learning to share toys. The characters then work together to overcome the obstacle, using problem-solving skills and learning important lessons along the way.

Overall, Kioka is a charming and entertaining show that is perfect for preschoolers. Its bright colors, cute characters, and engaging sound design make it a delight to watch. Moreover, its focus on important themes such as sharing and cooperation makes it an excellent tool for parents and caregivers looking to instill positive values in young children.

Kioka is a series that ran for 1 seasons (26 episodes) between January 1, 2012 and on Kidstream
