Created by award-winning cartoonist and animator Henri Desclez, this world-class preschool series places children in a magical classroom where Professor Iris reveals the extraordinary science behind everyday items and things including bees, shapes, laughter and plants!  

Professor Iris with his oversized bowtie and magic teaching stick sings and dances his way through lectures.  Such enthusiasm!  Such knowledge!  Professor Iris astonishes you with what he knows and what there is to learn.  Under his charms, the classroom fixtures come alive.  A piano, a plant, a skeleton , are puppets as amusing as Professor Iris himself. 

Professor Iris has a knack for explaining things so that young children will understand and each episode includes a song to reinforce the theme. Each episode begins with Professor Iris arriving in his classroom greeted by his students. The theme of the episode can usually be found in his oversized bow tie. 

Designed for preschoolers and created by award-winning cartoonist and animator Henri Desclez, who brought in puppeteers from the show Fraggle Rock. The set and the puppetry are great quality.

Iris, The Happy Professor was a Canadian-produced television puppet show that ran from 1992 to 1994, revolving around Professor Iris, a purple ibis who taught his class, which included his three students; Piano, Skeleton, and Plant. The Professor would teach a variety of subjects to his students and would always wear bowties based on whatever the lesson was, not unlike Ms. Frizzle and her dresses from The Magic School Bus. Also featured on the show was Ms. Principal, the school's headmistress who would often come in, complaining about the noises.
