Pro-Kids Productions, Inc.

Background: Pro-Kids Productions, Inc. is a Nashville, Tennessee-based production company formed in 1986 by two Trevecca University graduates, Greg Page and Steven Pennington, and known for producing video and television productions for kids (hence the name Pro-Kids), mostly for religious TV networks. Their most famous productions are The Pro-Kids Show and The Trollies sing-along videos. Today, Pro-Kids is more commonly known as PK Pictures (as Greg Page has founded it in 1983 under this name). The taping facilities used by Pro-Kids for The Trollies, on its side, is today called NuMynd Studios. Both operate in the building where Pro-Kids operated.

(1988-1997)

Nicknames: "The Smiling Eyeless Kid", "We Communicate with Kids"

Logo: On a blue background, we see black oval with on the left the company name aligned like this:

Pro- Kids Productions, Inc.

The words Pro-Kids is in blue in a strange font, while Productions, Inc. is in a Century Gothic font. Then, next to the name, an eyeless kid with a white and red cap with the words PK on it, as well as red-and-white shirt and shoes, is seen standing, proud.

At the bottom, the words "We Communicate with Kids" appear by merging.

FX/SFX: The smiling eyeless kids, the words merging.

Music/Sounds: Mainly the ending theme of any videotape produced by Pro-Kids.

Availability: This logo is an easy find on The Pro-Kids Show videotapes, as well as all three The Trollies sing-along videotapes (like Radio Sing-Along, The All-New Musical Adventure and Christmas Sing-Along, for example). It is also seen at the end of religious children's television shows seen at the time, like Opryland Kids Club.
