In the mid-1990s, they produced their first show, Kratts' Creatures, which made them famous. It was a full-package show that had adventure, entertainment, and education. It was a first-of-its-kind wildlife show that teaches young children about nature and animals, featuring Martin and Chris, who travelled the world and explored different animals and their habitats.
According to Carleton, the show became so famous and was nominated for multiple awards and won the Parent’s Gold Choice Award, while another show, Zoboomafoo, which was a live-action animated series for kids, won an Emmy Award.
