April Hartmann brings illustration, animation, and storytelling together in her YouTube series, Search & Find with The Dream Keepers. Each episode drops young viewers into vibrant, highly detailed worlds—from underwater scenes filled with “fishy crackers” to outer space and whimsical grocery stores—where they search for hidden characters and objects. Each episode is guided by the animated characters of Happy Thoughts and Hard Work from Hartmann's book "The Dream Keepers."

Designed for kids ages 4–7, the series blends playful visual problem-solving with subtle growth mindset messaging, encouraging focus, persistence, and a positive attitude. Created entirely by April—from concept and illustration to animation and visual storytelling—the series showcases her ability to build engaging, character-driven environments that translate seamlessly across publishing, digital content, and animation. Explore the full series on her YouTube channel, @aprilhartmanncreations, where imagination, interactivity, and storytelling come together.
