- Synopsis
- It’s really nice to have and use a lot of things but they have the annoying habit of breaking. The dog rips an arm of your favourite doll; the vacuum cleaner starts to blow instead of suck; and the antique clock stops chiming. Then what do you do? Throw it out and buy a new one? Often that’s what happens, but not at The Repair Shop of Saïd’s parents (Sameer and Zonia). Their motto: ‘Give your broken stuff a second chance: the environment and your wallet will be thankful.’
  
  Every day, Saïd and Anna play together in and around The Repair Shop. Here they have their own small adventures and share all their problems. Just like Saïd’s parents, the children, in their world in which even simple things are not always so obvious, like to think in terms of solutions. And although the children are very different and sometimes have little fights, they always put up with each other. They are a close-knit team, which helps them bring all their adventures to a successful conclusion.
  
  This fun, adventurous series has lots of room for humour. The kids-in-charge stories are not just about friendship, but also about thinking in terms of solutions. Sometimes you have to forgive each other or think outside the box. After all, everything deserves a second chance. Chances are that this will also rub off on our young viewers!
