Monday, December 5 @ 7:00 PM   “No one can resist the Sweety!” claims Sweety Foods & Games Executive Vice-President Tad Adman.   Presented with the temptations from his fast-food and videogame company using flashy and deceptive advertising, Tad might just be right. This half-hour program uses fast-paced comedy to deliver the message of healthy nutrition and exercise to young people ages 8 to 12.  It also addresses the influence of advertising on children’s diets and lifestyles through cartoon-like camera shots and clever parody.

This is a KEDT original production. Production funding was provided by: Perry & Haas, L.L.P. Driscoll Children’s Hospital Development Foundation Children’s Heart & Health Institute of Texas

The companion website featuring downloadable lesson guides and teacher resources will be available starting December 5 at www.sweetyfoods.com
