Big Blue / 123 Number Squad! / True and the Rainbow Kingdom

Guru Studio’s Big Blue, created by Ghanaian-Canadian artist Gyimah Gariba, shows young children what it means to be part of a family and places emphasis on how caring for the planet and each other is important. 123 Number Squad! sees a rescue team use numbers, counting and shapes to help the citizens of Numberville. “This unique series offers fast and funny adventures for preschoolers, where they’ll learn and laugh as they go,” says Corey Caplan, senior director of international sales. True and the Rainbow Kingdom demonstrates how to be mindful, courageous and respectful. “True is everything you would want in a hero,” Caplan says. “She doesn’t wield a sword or wave a wand; instead, it’s her kindness and compassion that make her aspirational for boys and girls all over the world.”

The unique selling point for the HappyKids platform is twofold, explains David Di Lorenzo, senior VP of kids and family at parent company Future Today. “On the one hand, HappyKids is one of the largest ad-supported kids’ streaming services and is available across multiple CTV platforms—from streaming devices to OEMs and MVPDs. Also, as a developer publisher, beyond our hub channel HappyKids, we operate a network of channels (apps) with several key partners, including LEGO, Moonbug Entertainment, Pinkfong and others.” The platform reaches families with kids from 0 to 12 and features a range of early-learning content, preschool programming, gaming and movies. “Our multiplatform distribution provides our partners access to a large-scale audience,” Di Lorenzo says.
