Juice Box is a new online children’s show and YouTube channel designed to entertain kids and grown-ups alike while teaching the Catholic faith. The web series will use popular toys, stories, games, crafts, and more to introduce faith-based topics on a level that young children will understand, engage with, enjoy, and (most importantly) remember. This is a safe Youtube channel that you can finally feel good about your kids watching.
Why This Matters
Have you ever noticed that other Christian denominations seem to have an abundance of high-quality educational content for children? It's time for the Catholic Church to catch up!

The Big Idea
With young Catholics leaving the Church in droves, it's time to find a new way to pass on the faith and engage our youngest generation. But there are very few high-quality multimedia resources available to Catholic parents to help their children begin to understand their faith and get excited about it. With your help, we can fix that!
How We’ll Do This
With your help, we will produce a variety of Catholic children's faith formation videos aimed at kids ages 3 to 6.
We are now producing a weekly show that uses popular toys, stories, games, crafts, and more to introduce faith-based topics on a level that young children will understand, engage with, enjoy, and (most importantly) remember. In order to build an audience on YouTube, consistency is key. To do this, our plan is to put out a new show every Friday that will teach and entertain kids. We are developing a formula to keep costs manageable while maintaining quality and regularity.
In the long term, we also will be producing a flagship kids show hosted by two seasoned performers who are also devout Catholics trained in ministry and faithful to the teachings of the Catholic Church. This thematic show consists of Miss Mel, Steve and Dilly (our animated character), teaching young kids about fun and exciting aspects of the Catholic faith in each episode. The writing, pre-production, set building, production, and post-production require a greater level of energy, creativity, time, and skill, requiring more resources to sustain this show.
