Abracadabra is a magically creative children's television program featuring Mike, a kindhearted magician, and his "wooden-headed" pal Joey. Abracadabra is set primarily in Mike's magic shop. Each episode follows a theme that offers an important lesson for children.

An extraordinary supporting cast was assembled for Abracadabra, including 13 talented children. Both human and puppet characters are featured. Together, these characters take viewers through a delightful story filled with magic, original music, and humor. At the conclusion or each episode, Joey records the day's events into his computer journal, reinforcing the lesson learned that day.

To ensure the highest quality in educational content, we consulted a Quality Evaluation Committee. This group of educators, journalists, physicians, and child psychologists generously donated their time and input for, the development of content and ensuring that educational objectives were met.

While each episode focuses on a particular theme, special segments enhance the entertainment and educational value. In the first episode, Professor Science teaches safe and simple experiments that can be done at home. Kate the Costume Shop Lady shows how to make a healthy snack. Mike demonstrates a Quick Trick that kids can do on their own or with their family.

The original songs of Abracadabra reinforce the themes of the show. Various other mediums are used to encourage interaction, expand the learning experience, and complement the important messages of the show. These include the Abracadabra web site and an Abracadabra newsletter.
With its bright colors, magic, and signs, the Abracadabra set is fun and exciting. Every episode is filled with music, magic, and amusement. The cast includes carefully selected characters that everyone can identify with.
