Described as a “one stop central destination for interactive fun, physical movement, learning and hands-on activities,” the Kids Zone is curated with a wide range of activities to help support families suffering from school closures and remote-working conditions.
“A significant portion of Sony Pictures’ workforce is made up of working parents. The idea of Sony Pictures’ Kids Zone was born from parents on our own team adjusting to working from home and managing home schooling,” Lexine Wong, Senior Executive Vice President, Worldwide Marketing, said in a statement. “We are proud to offer this resource to help families navigate these new and challenging circumstances, while hopefully having a little fun in the process.”
The Sony Pictures’ Kids Zone will feature exciting content from the partners at Sony Picture Animation alongside the live-action catalogue, including content from box office hits Peter Rabbit, The Angry Birds Movie franchise, the Hotel Transylvania series, Center Stage: On Pointe, the Swan Princess films and more! Every Tuesday and Thursday will bring new content from artistic crafts to delicious treats, DIY projects, scientific experiment, energetic dance-alongs, karaoke sing-alongs, a just for laughs section and more!
