MUMBAI: Cartoon Network and Pogo hosted a 'Fun Day Out' for Mumbai kids giving them an opportunity to meet their favourite toon stars including Johnny Bravo, Noddy, Dexter, Dee Dee, Popeye and Scooby Doo on 29 October 2006.
Aimed at engaging viewers in activities beyond the scope of television the 'Cartoon Network and Pogo Fun Day Out' had the adorable cartoon characters render a local flavour to the event as they danced to popular chartbusters, urging the kids to also join in with them.
In addition to catering to the kids, games were also organised for the entire family. On-stage games such as 'Dance Like Noddy' and 'Pogo Trivia', tested the skills and knowledge of not only the children, but also the elders. Special Cartoon Network and Pogo games were also organised beyond the stage including puzzles like 'Back Where They Belong', 'Knock Down The Villian', 'Play Smarter' and 'Tiny TV Play Area,' informs an official release.
Kids also got a chance to show off their beyblading skills with 'Beyblade' games. While other games like the 'M.A.D (Music, Art and Dance) Fan Club' allowed kids to scribble and draw their messages on a large canvas.
The gala day came to an end with 20 lucky kids hogging the opportunity to shake hands with Bob the Builder, Scooby and Noddy while the winners of the various games pocketed Cartoon Network and Pogo goodies as prizes.
