Join In On The Fun And Unforgettable Family Outings With The New Cartoonito Series Silly Sundays Across Africa

Get ready to embark on a feel-good journey filled with laughter, mayhem, and heartwarming moments as you join the Silly Sundays gang! Set against the backdrop of the beautiful coastal village known as Sunday Town, this animated series brings to life the joy of shared family adventures.

In this charming family comedy, meet Sonia, the wildly curious five-year-old, her younger sister Mel, the smallest but undoubtedly mightiest, and their sensible big cousin Hugo. Joining them are their Mom, the artist of the family; their Dad, forever the big kid at heart; and Granny, the family's music enthusiast.

One of their best friends, Nicky, occasionally joins them, who communicates using Irish Sign Language, highlighting the importance of reflecting authentic and diverse storylines on kids' television. Silly Sundays' co-director, Fabian Erlinghauser, expresses excitement about the latest character development, emphasising inclusivity. According to Erlinghauser, “We're thrilled to showcase a character with this ability, not disability. Nicky can speak sign language and lip-read like a superpower. We aim to portray Nicky as a normal kid, emphasising that this is an ability, not a limitation. It's an inclusive and authentic representation.”

Silly Sundays is set in a lively locale of narrow streets, quirky shops, and a bustling town square filled with musicians, street performers, flower sellers, and food merchants. And the inviting Sunday Beach is just minutes away, where the fun never ends.

Every week, when Sunday rolls around, Dad proudly reveals the schedule for the family day out. However, despite his best-laid plans, things are quickly blown off course by the unpredictability of everyday life. The kids soon find themselves in the middle of an unexpected adventure with a problem to solve.

But, with each other’s help, Sonia, Hugo, and Mel always find an imaginative solution to whatever obstacle they face – and have plenty of fun along the way! No matter where the children’s escapades take them, the stories will end with a joyful musical finale that brings the family together, with the characters they’ve met throughout the episode, to dance us into the credits.

Voicing the father in the series, Cian McGarrigle emphasises the central themes of Silly Sundays, stating, “The show is all about the power of imagination and the bonds of family. The kids turn everything into an adventure, and even when things don't go as planned, the family always comes together for a happy ending. It's a celebration of three generations of family unity.”

Join Sonia and her family and friends as they create unforgettable memories together starting Saturday, 9 March at 7:30 CAT on Cartoonito Africa. Fans can tune in every weekend at 07:30 CAT for two daily episodes. With stories of the ups, the downs, and mostly the fun times, embrace every little moment with them.
