FETCH! shows that reality programs can help kids learn how to tackle problems, overcome fears, brainstorm, and collaborate. Reality programs allow viewers to see that real expertise often takes time to develop and that learning is about the journey, not the destination. And, rather than be an impetus for anti-social behavior, they can create a positive environment for modeling pro-social skills and resolving conflicts between kids.
A major goal of the series is to model for viewers that no matter what the challenge, contestants will need to apply a specific set of skills, which can be performed in different sequences and repeated as necessary, in order to find their solutions.
