[citation needed] Supposedly set in the world of The Lion King, the series follows friends Timon (Bruce Lanoil) and Pumbaa (Ernie Sabella) as they learn to be "Safety Smart" by taking precautions such as being aware of your surroundings.

The main storyline for the series is Timon not knowing/following proper safety guidance, and Pumbaa teaching it to him.

Disney explains: "The two loveable characters will teach students in kindergarten through third grade the importance of always being on the look-out for safety problems.

Together with Timon and Pumbaa, students will learn a variety of safety lesson that will help themselves and others avoid injuries".
