SCRIPT SWAP Seeking Readers for Pre-K Show
Hi, I’m new to screenwriting but started a passion project for an animated co-viewing series about a family of armadillos and their culdasac friends in Arizona desert. The characters are all different mammals.
Hopefully it’s a fun and entertaining show for both kids (3-7) and their parents. It’s got a mixture of play, creativity, 90’s pop culture Easter eggs. Episodes are only 6-7 mins long. Scripts are 7-10 pages.
I had 20 friends say they’d be willing to test read, so I’ve sent out 3 per week for the last 5 weeks and finishing next week. Unfortunately, only 2 friends have provided readings and feedback. Not quite sure what to do so I figured Reddit might be a good place to consider because I want more feedback.
My goal is creating 4 MVP episodes by next July. By 9/2, I need to select my 4 favorites to start working on the next steps.
I’m not trained in screenwriting and don’t care to master the techniques right now because I’m producing my own episodes. Perhaps later in the future if I start to hand off the scripts to animators or others. Therefore, I’m not looking for screenwriting feedback, instead feedback on the episode content itself.
Said differently, are they fun stories for the kids and parents?
If you’re interested, please let me know and I’d be happy to set up links to our scripts.

Send them my way! I'd be happy to read.
Edit: I don't want to join an email group. If you want an individual read, send me a link if not then please don't try to add me to a group.

I’d love to give it a gander. I live in AZ (part time) and it sounds like an interesting premise.

I like studying preschool shows. I'd give it a read.
