Dottie's Magic Pockets is a children's show featuring Dottie and her magical friends as they sing, dance, and learn. Dottie's Magic Pockets is the first LGBT children's programming created for gay families, single-parent families, adopted families and traditional families.
The Dottie's Magic Pockets DVD was released in September 2007. "Dottie", portrayed by actor Jen Plante, appeared on the R Family Vacations cruise to the Mexican Riviera in March 2008, marking the first time the LGBT families and friends would be "entertained by the main character of a kids' show that is set in a lesbian household".
Dottie's Magic Pockets' main characters include several puppets: James the Flower, Uncanny the Singing Can, Motilda the Mouse and Randal the Beaver. Other characters are represented using animations and claymations - many have two mothers or two fathers. The live-action format of Dottie's Magic Pockets is similar to other live-action shows, such as Yo Gabba Gabba, Sesame Street and Pee Wee's Playhouse.
The DVD was followed up by a 55-minute CD titled The Super, Secret Seashell Cave. The CD is a sing-along adventure featuring Dottie, James Uncanny, Motilda and Randal, with 16 original songs composed by Allyson Newman. It was released in December 2009.
