Origins
In Britain, the country where Sprout's senior vice president of programming Andrew Beecham was actually from, children's channels had adult presenters fill the gap in between shows by doing preschool-friendly activities and showcasing content submitted by viewers. When Sprout launched and Beecham became its SVP of programming, The Birthday Show and The Good Night Show brought the UK channels' presented formats to America. According to Betsy Oliphant, Beecham wanted a live show out of the presented format, so Sprout executives talked about creating a live show where the hosts could showcase viewer-submitted content and have guest appearances from characters. Previously, Sprout only went live through a 2007 Mother's Day broadcast hosted by Kevin Yamada that featured bottom-of-the-screen scrolls of mother's day messages. The Sprout team also felt it was important that their then-new live show connected with morning activities and would have the hosts show the day and viewers' weather and represent how children play in their spare time. They played around with names before settling on "The Sunny Side Up Show," after thinking about breakfast and eggs. Since preschoolers are learning to get dressed by themselves, they wanted to create a segment and game that modeled that, which became Dress Chica. Sandy Wax said that the block was a throwback to classic children's shows (The Magic Garden, Captain Kangaroo, Romper Room, The Howdy Doody Show) with modern sensibility.
2010s
was shown regularly on Sprout each weekday until September 2010, when weekend editions of the block superseded The Let's Go Show. Additionally, the set was revamped and Noodle and Doodle, Sprout's first long-form original series, premiered. Sprout executives hoped that, with Noodle and Doodle, the show would anticipate more viewer interaction. In 2013, Kelly Vrooman announced she was leaving the show, so Sprout held a Host Hunt contest. The winners ended up being Emily Borromeo, who started hosting in 2014, and Darryl Williams, who started hosting the recurring segment Dial Darryl. Additionally, Kaitlin Becker and Long Island-based kindie singer Tim Kubart started hosting at the end of the year. The show reached 13.4 million viewers that year, reporting its highest household quarterly in delivery since Sprout became a rated network in 2010.
Once a year, hosts, associate producers, "Chicateers," and other people united to discuss weekly themes, starting with holidays, seasons, and preschool events. Afterwards, the crew looked at different topics of preschoolers' interests, set up a calendar, and assigned a team to develop each week's content. The team also went to schools for probably every six weeks to observe
The host and associate producer worked on a three-week cycle, with the first week serving as a prep week. After watching the following week's episodes, the crew decided on how to tie them into the week's theme, thought about the shows in the theme's context, and tried to pull out ideas preschoolers could pick up on. On Tuesday, the host and associate producer pitched their ideas to producers and an educational consultant enhanced segments to include additional learning opportunities. Afterwards, crew members listened to ideas to make sure that they were educational and age-appropriate, then spent the rest of the week tweaking ideas and putting everything together. On the second week, hosts were live on air from 9AM to noon, rehearsing their first link at around 8:40. While the first show of the day aired, Chica and the hosts prepared and rehearsed, on-air for about forty minutes over the course of three consecutive hours. During the third week, the associate producer helped produce the show in the control room.
A plush toy of Chica was available as early as the Sprout birthday sweepstakes in 2010. According to Lisa O'Brien, once Chica dolls sold out, Sprout executives knew they had something special on their hands and created The Chica Show.
In 2013, Sprout and CafePress launched Shop Sprout, a website in which people could shop for Sprout show-related merchandise. Plush toys, backpacks, and shirts, amongst other items, utilizing Chica were sold on the Shop Sprout website.
The cast hosted Let's Grow, a series of two videos released by HiT Entertainment. Kelly and Chica hosted Lend a Helping Hand, which was about helping others, while Sean and the latter hosted Safety First, a video about being safe.
Hosts have made live appearances at the likes of the Comcast Center, Idlewild and Soak Zone, the Please Touch Museum, and Sesame Place, in addition to opening for Barney shows, and have appeared on NBC10 Philadelphia and Wake Up with Al. In 2012, Sprout characters and hosts started appearing on a themed float in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, which had a replica of the Sunshine Barn. Additionally, a Sprout Mall Tour, held from 2008 to 2011, had children tell the weather with Chica and a host by another replica of the barn.
