Eddie’s Lil’ Homies joins Eddie and his ragtag gang on their playground adventures as they navigate the fun and challenges of friendship. Outside of home and away from school their friends are family and the playground their universe, one where in the blink of an eye the ordinary can suddenly become extraordinary.
Eddie’s that kid, you know the sort, the one that all of the others gravitate too. He’s funny, quick with a comeback, loves his sport, has a big smile and an even bigger heart. Then there’s his best friends Lottie and Tal - Lottie with her vivid imagination and lots of plans, and Tal, a little cautious, but with the brains to make those plans a reality. Joining them are their friends, Shanti, the rule-abiding playground Monitor, Lachie, the book-bound conspiracy theorist and Decks the frenetic DJ, always ready with the beats. Then of course there’s Junior, the gang’s mascot – two years younger than the others, he hero worships Eddie and can’t wait to be a big kid just like him.
Theirs is a world of competition, imagination and fantasy, where anything and everything is possible, where imaginary friends can be real, games of rock paper scissors can take on stupendous importance, and kindness, empathy and a good rap can help put anything right.
