CHOLITA is a little Indigenous Hispanic-speaking girl who goes on adventures with her best friend, the talking llama PEPE. During their adventures, we also meet her annoying self-involved sisters, THE CHOLAS, who perform educational songs from different genres. Their adventures will take place in a mythological world where English-speaking children will learn Spanish, cultural values, and practical life lessons. CHOLITA can communicate with the viewer by asking questions that revolve around these subjects while traveling around the magical world of South America. CHOLITA will show children how unconditional love and gratitude are the secrets to happiness and how important it is always to be kind to themselves and others. The primary purpose of this program will be to teach Spanish to English-speaking children and to give them the tools to be present in their own lives and grateful to live in our diverse world.

Hola! My name is CHOLITA, and I can not wait to travel with you all over South America's magical, mythological world!

Let me introduce you to my best friend, PEPE. He is a talking LLAMA that only speaks SPANISH. Help me teach him inglés, and he will teach us Español!

PEPE

Pepe is wild!

He loves to do educational activities and make us laugh.

His favorite things to do are outdoors because he loves nature.

When I say "VAMOS PEPE!" he instantly transforms into a unique adventure-ready outfit!

He loves to change colors, wear new outfits, and always has a fun haircut.

This is one way he teaches us new words and vocabulary in Spanish.

STYLE

PEPE is an expert in fashion and style. He always surprises us with his NEW looks.

MY SISTERS

During our adventures, my older sisters always come out from nowhere to teach us a new song to dance to and sing along to.

Get ready to Party with their band "Las Cholas"!

They love Hip Hop, Reggaeton, Disco, Musical Theatre, and more! Thanks to them, I have learned much about music, different instruments, and dance styles!

I always rock out with my sisters, wearing my favorite skirts and hats!

Join us by singing and dancing with your sun glasses and favorite clothes.

My FAMILY

Families are like branches on a tree. We grow in different directions, yet our roots remain as one.

ABUELO

My abuelo is so old that he is considered a mythological being. He shares stories about mother earth, our ancestors and so much more. He also talks to the spirits and other mythological beings. He is always teaching us ancient wisdom!

MAMA

My mama shares so much love with me and others because her heart is so full. She gives me many hugs and kisses everyday and always says a prayer/blessing for you and I before our adventures. She also packs Pepe and I the best authentic South American meals, maybe she will teach you how to cook them!

Hermanos

My older brothers are my partners in crime, and they sometimes join us on our adventures! They joke around now and then, but they protect Pepe and me from the unknown while traveling.

TIAS

I love my aunts so much! They are always weaving me new outfits and giving me excellent life advice.
They also like to gossip, but I know you'll love them as much as I do!

SeÑORA CoNDOR

She is one of the most giant birds in the world, and to me, she is family. She recently became a widow, and she considers you and me her favorite children. She is always in a rush to a business meeting and loves to fly in windy areas to get her there.

Bailarines

These dancers are so in love that they can not stop dancing around the village and even pop up in different places along our adventures. They love to teach us their traditional dances and why it's so important to love ourselves and others.

Cholita Fighter

This Cholita is a Super Hero in my village! However, she doesn't use violence to protect us. She is excellent at cultivating communication when there is a disagreement and teaches us to respect one another and our opinions. She's really helpful when my family and I argue.

THE MYTHOLOGICAL WORLD

Myths are more than mere stories! They serve a very profound purpose in ancient and modern cultures. Myths are sacred tales that explain the world and our experience in it. Myths are as relevant to us today as they are to our ancestors. Myths answer timeless questions and serve as a compass to each generation.

Mythological friends

I have many unique friends, and I am so excited to introduce them all to you on our adventures!

CArnaval spirits

These twins are funny and adventurous. They always pop on my right and left shoulders when I have an essential decision to make.

OSO

This dancing bear constantly reminds us that we are safe in this world! He also helps me make good choices in life. He's always reminding us that our actions have consequences.

Diablito

He has a good heart, but he can also be a troublemaker! Sometimes he gives me ideas that seem fun and adventurous at the moment but may not be the best for me and others.

PACHAMAMA

Mother Earth is a beautiful spirit that teaches us the importance of loving animals and plants. She is full of ancient wisdom and lives in a cave surrounded by waterfalls. She is here to remind us to treat her well, and in return, she will treat us well.

INTi

The Sun brings us life! He is always busy going around shedding his powerful light on us all. He is pure love, but he also loves to play jokes by pouring rain on us when we need it most. Sometimes you can see him taking a quick bath in the water, creating vapor and clouds!

KUSILLO

'Kusillo' is the name of a cheeky monkey who acts as a jester or buffoon in my village. He is always keeping us entertained with his cheerful humor and energy.

ANCESTORS

These protectors are always flying around in pure happiness. They visit us at random times and even share the most profound secrets of life.

THE protectors

These four elements help Pachamama to keep all the animals, plants, and us alive! The four elements of FIRE, EARTH, AIR, and WATER are the foundations of life. The heat, the earth beneath our feet, the air we breathe, and the water we drink are essential to our existence. They exist in a harmonious balance, which is necessary for us and the planet to stay alive.

viento (WIND)

He lives in a palace on top of the Andes and creates wind with his wings to clean the earth!
He can also caress all creatures with his wind and creates order when needed. He loves to twist and turn so much that sometimes he gets out of control.

fuego (FIRE)

He only comes when we call him, but he can not always control his flames. Mother Earth can get hurt by his flames if we do not use him carefully. I love his funny laugh and unique sound!

Tierra (EARTH)

Deep in the caves of the Andes, Tierra holds all the riches and abundance in the world. Where ever he walks, he leaves a path of soil! He likes to share beautiful stories with all of us and is secretly in love with Pachamama because she turns his soil into plants.

Agua (WATER)

You can see her dancing and swimming in lakes, rivers, and oceans! She loves to make sweet hums and can only communicate with her mist. She can transform into anything until you touch her, and she melts. She works very hard watering plants and ensuring plenty of water for all.

THE Antagonists

The King and Queen have and intense and selfish desire for wealth, power, and food.

KING

QUEEN

EL TIO

He is the spirit that gives bad, selfish ideas to the King and Queen.

LA llorona

She is a scary ghost that loves popping out of nowhere and scaring us in our adventures.

LA BRUJA

She is a cholita that uses spells and potions for her benefit. She loves destroying the natural order of nature.

THE BACKGROUND WORLD

Our planet Earth is such a beautiful planet. With all of its oceans, plants, animals, and land. That is why we artistically propose that the background world of the show could be real planet earth locations. The combination of natural earth imagery and animation with cartoons could help the children uniquely connect with nature.

EPISODES

Parenting involves taking care of our children's physical and mental needs. It is about empowering children to become the best version of themselves. Parents play a crucial role in shaping children’s behavior and character. Part of this process involves teaching them about moral values they can carry with them until they are old.
That is why the core of each episode will be an essential value.
