Paper and Pencils

Paper and Pencils is an interactive animated television series produced by The Kiddie Channel. The first season consists of 52 episodes, each 11 minutes long, but is often shown as twenty-six blocks, each containing two episodes. It is the first-ever spinoff of Kiddie's previous television series The Magic Fingerfellows. On October 2022, it was announced that Paper and Pencils would premiere for streaming on Kiddie Plus.

The show centers around the town of Petropolis, just north of Bugaboo City, in which a young squadger named Leeladee Wahonkadong and her friends go throughout their day while solving different problems along the way. Among the characters who live in this special world are Smudgeon, Lozzer, Darbo, Ben Jammin, Dee Generation, The Fallen Angels, and Gulliver Fancypants.

In the United States, Paper and Pencils originally aired on Kiddie's preschool block, but was later burned off to weekdays.

Hallmarks
Episodes are produced in seasons which consist of twenty 24-minute episodes. Each episode is also produced with a 30-second puppet sequence that can be seen in the show's opening theme. One of the unusual design features of the show is the animation using watercolors and ink-and-paint in addition to the cartoon's classic pattern style. It also uses stop motion animation, clay models, live-action scenes with the voice actors of the show and puppets (both marionette and hand-controlled). This was also sometimes used in other Kiddie shows. It boasts one of the most diverse varieties of mediums used in any single series.

Leeladee and all other characters were given whimsical designs so that their facial emotions could easily be changed with almost no effort and so that they would look appealing in puppet form. The creators submitted only basic sketches to the animators and assumed that the figures would be cleaned-up in production. However, the animators merely retraced their drawings, which led to the crude appearance of the characters in the initial short episodes. The characters made their debut in the first episode.
