What is Pacca Alpaca: Blue about?
Pacca Alpaca: Blue is an animated video for children aged 4 to 9 in which Pacca Alpaca, who is mostly blue himself, shows them the colour blue in the world around them.
Pacca Alpaca is a fantastically fluffy guide who travels the world with children, discovering languages and cultures along the way. This very short episode is part of his colours series. It opens with a painter's easel and the word "Colours!", and then the word BLUE, built from blue toy bricks.
From there, the colour is called out as blue things come on the screen, one after another, in real photographs and film. There are blue shutters, a blue butterfly, a denim jacket and a smart blue suit (with Pacca's head popping out of the collar), a shiny blue car, a kitten's blue eyes, a bridge with blue railings, the wide blue sky, a pile of blue bags, a dark blue front door and a twirling blue skirt, with Pacca dancing alongside.
At the end comes the challenge: "Your turn! Find something blue!" At about a minute, it is quick enough to watch several times, and it makes a simple game for home: look around the room together and name every blue thing you can see. It is not music-free.
