Friends for Life, a children's health series, is built on a cast of characters modeled after real-life cells that interact with each other through adventures stories that feature Hemo and Globin, two hardworking, good-natured but vulnerable red blood cells, who carry oxygen to all their friends for life and then take their waste away as they return for their next assignment.
Friends for Life educates, informs and entertains young and growing children through stories designed to provide and promote good health habits through the use of simple but useful information about body systems and functions that can help develop and maintain health and wellness. The stories offer an opportunity to children of all ages to gain an understanding of what healthy behavior is and how good eating and exercise habits can help them improve their overall wellness.
Hemo and Globin, two of the smallest and reddest superheroes on the planet, through conversations between themselves and their Friends for Life, bring facts, fun and a sense of adventure to the body’s systems in a way that engages young and growing children to learn more and feel safe at the same time. And all this is done by two delivery guys who ask for nothing for themselves, while giving their all for everyone else.
According to real tissue qualities and attributes, each cell character looks and performs differently, yet together they help each other perform their important jobs. Good competes against bad and are ongoing story themes that introduce germs, viruses, and other malevolent characters, who, if not checked or destroyed by bodily forces of good, can have devastating or fatal affects for Hemo and Globin and their Friends for Life.
