Hi parents!

We’re grateful for the trust of the families who listen to us, and we understand how much parents like you care about what their children watch and hear. That’s why we want to share the values in our media:

• We believe parents and caregivers are the most important influence in their children’s lives, and our role is to support you as best we can.

• Our #1 priority is to create content that brings families together and that inspires children to live with curiosity and connection.

• We are not a political organization.

We strive to make content that is fun to enjoy for families, and we believe our format featuring scientists and science communicators makes our programs more trustworthy, more interesting, and more inspiring for families.

In the course of discussing science and featuring scientists from many backgrounds, sometimes topics arise that caregivers may view differently. In these infrequent instances, these are the questions we ask ourselves:

• Does the content include political or controversial messages? (avoid whenever possible)

• Is the content directly relevant to the episode focus? (remove if not directly relevant to the episode content)

• Is it presented in a way that’s proportional to its importance in the episode? (do not allow it to distract disproportionately)

We don’t always get everything right, and when we make mistakes, we try to learn from them. Every day, our team works to create content that families can enjoy and learn from together.

If you have concerns or feedback, I’d love to hear from you. You can contact me, Robert Carpenter, executive producer of Cumbre Kids, through the form on this page or at robert@cumbremedia.com.

Sincerely,

Robert Carpenter
