ADVENTURES OF TURTLE TAIDO is the story of a bubbly, lively turtle who travels to different cities on an adventure. On his journeys, he makes friends and learns about different cultures. He also learns about different animals. His special powers enables him get himself and others get out of trouble. His experiences teaches us to understand diversity and live with others in peace and harmony.

Apparently delighted with this development, MuyiwaKayode says ‘We are excited about this agreement, because our vision is to develop a proudly African animation series and hopefully a popular cartoon character. Beyond that, we want African children to take pride in their cultural identity and understand diversity. It is both entertaining and educational and kids get to learn a lot about places and animals’. 

The series has received positive reviews and was nominated at the Abuja International Film festival, in the Animation Category.

  9. About time Africans created their own heroes and heroines rooted in their own cultural/historical context esp at an early age for the children. These childhood learning opportunities & images last a lifetime and will help to reset for the better, the mind/brain/dreams/visions of the African child as opposed to entrenched neo-colonial images. Kudos to the creator, Mr. Kayode. #goodcausetospeakup
