What is Pacca Alpaca: Orange about?
Pacca Alpaca: Orange is an animated video for children aged 4 to 9 in which Pacca Alpaca shows them the colour orange 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 short episode is part of his colours series, and it starts with the word ORANGE in big orange letters.
From there, the colour is called out as orange things come on the screen in real photographs and film, with Pacca popping up among them. He rides on a little orange road train, spins a basketball and tries on an orange coat. Children see a pile of oranges, traffic cones by the road, a glowing lamp, a pan of paella, a heap of pumpkins, a bowl of dried apricots, a lifebuoy, a butterfly with orange wings, bright orange flowers, a town of orange rooftops and, to finish, a sunset over the hills. There is even a man in an orange kilt, with Pacca dancing beside him in a kilt of his own.
At the end, a few of the pictures come back as snapshots, and then the challenge: "Your turn! Find something orange!" The video lasts about two minutes, so it is easy to watch again, and it is not music-free.
