THE NIMBOLS

This series follows the adventures of five young Nimbols who live in a fictional parallel world in the Gravelox Solar System. The Space Academy where they live and attend school is on the central planet Traffix, one of the five planets of this solar system. All Nimbols come from different planets and exhibit a huge variety of physical and cultural characteristics. Like kids everywhere, they make mistakes, underestimate situations and knowingly break the rules, which often places them in harm's way.

As opposed to preaching about rules and regulations, the series shows the group becoming aware of mobility issues through experience, with the focus being more on developing their perceptions and general awareness of road safety situations. Many of the dangers on Traffix are mobility related. There are various forms of transportation, all familiar to our eyes, but often bordering on the fantastic. Flying saucers, rocket-powered cars and built-in anti-gravity units all can be a hazard if one is not careful.

The aim of the project is not only to increase the safety awareness of children worldwide, but also to portray the importance of teamwork and of working together on problems to obtain a common goal. Although it is a medium for safety issues, the series is in essence humorous, lively, and fun-filled entertainment, and also treats environmental themes. With interesting and larger than life characters that swiftly draw you into their captivating world, "The Nimbols" is also about school, team-work and friendship.

They'll steal your hearts…they'll capture your imagination…and before you're even aware of it… you'll know a lot more about road safety!
