==Synopsis==
Walt Disney's Tika the Tadpole introduces Tika, a cheerful but clumsy five-year-old tadpole who lives in a small pond in India with her family and friends. Tika is tired of her boring, everyday life in the pond, for she believes nothing exciting ever happens there, and wants to explore the world. Her family disapproves of this, saying that she is still young tadpole and she should wait until she is older. However, Tika remains persistent and wants to show that she can still go out at her young age. During her adventure, she reaches several milestones, including the growth of her legs and her eventually blossoming into a young frog girl, as well as maturing with age and learning responsibility.
