Bob the Builder is a children’s TV character created by Keith Chapman. The TV Show first hit our screens in 1999 and since then has become a great success with a huge fan following. The shows message “can we build it? Yes we can!” demonstrates to children the ability to finish what you start by portraying the power of positive thinking, problem solving, teamwork and follow-through. When a child shares in the world, he or she will pick up these tools that are so essential to a “can do” attitude.
Bob is currently building Sunflower Valley, which is an eco-friendly community. Sunflower Valley is a town, which works with nature. The buildings are built using recycled materials and powered by sun and wind to reduce waste and energy!
