This New Pinoy Animated Series On iWant Teaches Kids Empathy, Respect, And Teamwork

It’s hard to minimize kids’ screen time, especially now that the enhanced community quarantine (ECQ) has been extended. Parents can, however, make sure their kids’ screen time is both enjoyable and educational. One show that can help you achieve that is Jet and the Pet Rangers, the first-ever original Filipino animated series from iWant!

The series follows a young boy named Jet who transforms into a superhero along with his animal friends: Liksi the dog, Tiyang Manok the hen, and Gigi the goldfish. Together, Jet and his pets come to the rescue of other animals in the neighborhood who get in trouble.

According to a press release, Jet and the Pet Rangers is for kids aged five years and above and aims to help instill values like empathy, respect, and teamwork in its views. The show also intends to build viewers’ imagination and problem-solving skills.

The show premiered on Friday, April 3, 2020, and is currently available for streaming on the iWant app. It currently has seven episodes where you can follow Jet and his animal friends help a cat who doesn’t practice personal hygiene, rebuild the destroyed home of a dog with a disability, boost the self-esteem of a pig who had been bullied, help twin puppies reconcile through beloved Pinoy games, and more.
