Nicknames: "WGBH Outline II"

Logo: The logo begins on a ruffled white background that resembles crumpled paper. Surrounding the borders of the logo are colored pencil scribbles consisting of the colors grey, green, blue, yellow, and orange. Also on the background is the orange word "Kids" which is scrambled around the screen. A folded in paper cube rolls in from the right center of the screen and stops in the center. The cube unfolds to reveal the WGBH logo which is solid and colored blue. The screen zooms out as the "Kids" text bounces towards the bottom right of the WGBH logo and settles. The cube continues to unfold turning the background into a white paper background. A yellow "firework" in the shape of an asterisk explodes on the top right of the logo. Another purple asterisk firework explodes in the bottom right. The "Kids" text wiggles around throughout the logo. After the fireworks explode, the logo stops zooming out and freezes before fading to black.

FX/SFX: The cube rolling in and unfolding, the word "Kids" jumping into its place, and the "fireworks." Simple computer animation, but still creative.

Music/Sounds: The tail end of the WGBH music accompanied by a playful techno rendition of the music with a beat in the background, or the ending theme of the show.

Availability: Current. First seen on new episodes of Arthur and is now used on WGBH Kids programs that have debuted since then, such as Pinkalicious & Peterrific and Molly of Denali. This even plasters over previous WGBH logos on newer prints of Peep and the Big Wide World. However, this logo's days may be numbered due to WGBH's rebrand to GBH.
