Land of the Lost & Forgotten: The Lost Story Mappers Series (The Story Maps of the Lost & Forgotten)
The Story: In each episode four singing, dancing, poetic and artistic journalist characters from the Land of the Lost & Forgotten (two of whom are trainees and small fries that ask a lot of questions or disrupt things at times) who find and investigate lost & forgotten stories in the Land of the Lost & Forgotten and beyond for the Forever After News & the Forever After Story Knowledge Maps Databank, will interview and investigate the origins of each Lost & Forgotten item and give them a chance to tell the story of how they become lost and forgotten and where they originally historically came from in terms of their general roots as well as discuss through poetry, song, art and narrative scenes, their individual origins, their current functions and uses, any claims to fame (such as legendary or other status like the fiddle in the cat in the fiddle rhyme and cats Puss In Boots, potoroo extinction rumours, Tazmanian Tigers wiped out for false accusations of hunting livestock, wooden spoon featuring in Hey Diddle Diddle etc.) and any current issues they face. (creative blend of science, history, facts, poetry, dance, art and song) An edutainment series that explores the origin stories of the lost and forgotten inclusive of everyday objects, animals, nature and toys (and anything else that is lost or forgotten) as well as the current issues they face as they come to life in the Land of the Lost & Forgotten and tell their stories through poetry, song, dance, art and narrative which stems from the first episodes below as each lost and forgotten item discusses their future plans, dreams and hopes (i.e. being kept and cherished as a treasure, repaired, fixed or recycled or in the case of nature getting a new human home or natural home.) However, one trickster in their midst doesn't necessarily want to help as they try to help lost and forgotten items and objects find their purpose and happy forever after home and quite often, causes more chaos than they mend. Each story will be mapped into a journey of past, present and future and will map the trail of each guest through poetry, art, song and dance landmarks made from their historical roots, their origins and their experiences along the way:

Patty & Cardo Boxy the Cardboard Box Girl: follows the adventures of Patty & Cardo Boxy when Patty moves to a new house/area and one day is playing on a tree swing in her new garden when the swing branch breaks but as she falls to the ground, the branches of the tree move and cushion her fall. The next morning Patty unpacks some of her things from a cardboard box but just as she is about to put the empty carboard in the hallway to be thrown out, Cardo Boxy, the cardboard box girl, asks Patty to make her into cardboard box theatre then Patty & Cardo Boxy go on a recycling adventure around Patty's home looking for all the empty boxes from the house move. Every empty box they find (five in total) comes from a different tree and so, Cardo Boxy turns Patty into a card person then takes Patty into each box as they visit each tree's former life where Cardo Boxy tells Patty the story of the tree each box came from after which they return then use the boxes to make the cardboard box theatre, to make all the cardboard actors (five of which are tree people/beings representing the five trees) and to put on a cardboard box play for her parents that tells the story of the five trees roots and where they came from.
