Scout is a 12-year-old girl and happily growing up in New York City. Just as she's about to become a teenager and enter the exciting world of adolescence, her mother decides to move them to an isolated part of South Africa. She'll be running a safari lodge. Scout's new environment is totally alien to the sophistication of New York. Watch as nature challenges Scout to learn the truly important things in life.

  This show is about a girl named Jenifer, or Scout, growing up in New York City who moves to South Africa to live with her mom, step-brother, and step-dad. hide « show »

  This show is so good. Discovery kids still plays reruns, but I think this show ended too fast. There is so much more that could be done with show. But instead, we just get reruns. The acting is awesome, and Freedom Hadebe is one of my personal favorite actors. Plus Anastasia Baranova does an amazing job as Scout. This show really deserves a second chance. And the South Aferican scenery is great. So are all the different animals. And Tyler, Scouts step brother can be so funny. If you haven't watched this, you should give a try. It won't dissapoint.

  Do you agree?
