Have you ever wanted to send ideas on TV? Well, in ZOOM, that's exactly what they do! 7 hipsters take the time to be with one child. They address the child directly and personally. Into this relationship are woven the arts and crafts, cooking, science and technology, and games sent in by viewers. ZOOM is successful because it encourages kids to turn off their TV and do it. ZOOM aims to extend the child's interest and it encourages viewer interaction. Each episode contains a craft, recipe, game, and an experiment.
