Stillwater and Here We Are: Notes for Living on Planet Earth on Apple TV+ continue to win critical acclaim for the company.

As reported by Variety, Apple TV+ has taken home three Daytime Emmy awards as part of the 48th Annual Daytime Emmy Awards. Stillwater took home the award for Outstanding Editing for a Preschool Animated Program, while Here We Are: Notes for Living on Planet Earth took home awards for Outstanding Special Class Daytime Animated Program and Outstanding Individual Achievement in Animation.

Stillwater had also been nominated for Outstanding Preschool Children's Animated Series but was beat out by Nickelodeon's The Adventures of Paddington.

Stillwater tells the story of siblings who learn how to face their day-to-day challenges with the help of their wise panda neighbor.

"Stillwater" is based on the Scholastic book series "Zen Shorts" by Jon J Muth and is produced by Gaumont and Scholastic Entertainment. The series centers on siblings Karl, Addy and Michael, who are typical kids with typical kid challenges – meaning that sometimes even the smallest things can feel insurmountable. Fortunately for these three, they have Stillwater, a wise panda, as their next-door neighbor. Through his example, stories and gentle humor, Stillwater gives the children a deeper understanding of their feelings as well as tools that help them face their own day-to-day challenges. Stillwater also brings newfound fun and adventure for the three, opening their eyes to the quiet wonders of the world around them and guiding them to their place within it.

Here We Are: Notes for Living on Planet Earth is an animated short that takes us on a tour of the planet that we live on.
