Emmy nominated Hip Hop Harry is a music and dance based live-action program designed to use hip hop culture, style and music to entertain and inspire children ranging in age from 3 -6 years-old. Each episode of Hip Hop Harry engages kids and their parents with playful and relatable narratives while focusing on language development and mental and physical growth. The program airs weekday mornings during Discovery Kids and TLC's Ready Set Learn! programming block.

Hip Hop is one of the major music and dance voices for children and youth today. Hip Hop includes art, dance, language, and music, but equally important it is an active, creative, and engaging cultural form that extends across all ethnic, class, and gender lines throughout the world. Educators have known for a long time that children learn more when they are actively engaged and interested in the learning process. Rhyming is also a precursor for literacy, and the call and response nature of Hip Hop is an organic way for children to retain new ideas. Hip Hop Harry uses the popularity of this art form as a vehicle for bringing age-appropriate, positive life-lessons, and pro-social values to children that will become stepping-stones for the next stage of their development.
