Alma's Way

Ages 4-8 · 2021–present · Sonia Manzano · 30 min episodes

The engaging modern-day series stars 6-year-old Alma Rivera, a proud, confident Puerto Rican girl, who lives in the Bronx with her parents and younger brother, Junior, as well as a diverse group of close-knit and loving friends, family, and community members. In each 11-minute story, Alma speaks directly to young viewers, sharing her observations and feelings, working through challenges, and offering them a window into her everyday life. In every episode, Alma's Way aims to model self-awareness, responsible decision making, and empathy, encouraging kids to generate and value their own ideas and questions. As she uses "Think-Through" moments to stop, listen, and process in the face of a tough decision, Alma reflects and takes action while demonstrating social awareness.
