DRAGON - He's big. He's green. He breathes fire! He's also sweet and silly and loves to sing and dance. His famous line, ā€œA dragon’s gotta do what a dragon’s gotta doā€ is a motto he lives by.

PRINCESS PENELOPE - The kindest kitten in all the land! With her purple purse of preposterous things, she needs YOUR help to solve problems big and small.

ANGELA- Angela's favorite thing to do is read all of the stories with YOU from the big book of Princess Penelope. From Castle Balls to Treasure Hunts to Fairytales and Bedtime stories , she always has a new one to share!

BUNNY LALA - Our dramatic "tween-ager" ahe never talks, only sings! Our Taylor Swift in the making, Bunny Lala writes new songs about everything she's feeling and everyone she loves - including YOU!

SIL THE SILLIEST- Sil the Silliest is truly the silliest! From his knock knock jokes to juggling pinecones, he's always ready to make you laugh!

PIRATE ARGH - As a young pirate in training, his biggest wish is to find his very first treasure! He's still practicing his "arghs", which is how he got his nickname!

The Penelope Difference

YOUR CHILD DOESN'T JUST WATCH - THEY THINK

Every episode is designed to pull kids in as active problem-solvers, not passive viewers. Angela's research-backed approach means learning happens naturally, joyfully, and without kids even realizing it.

KIDS BECOME THE HERO

Angela's proven interactive storytelling method - the same one behind Blue's Clues and Daniel Tiger - makes every child feel like they're inside the story, not just watching from the outside.

RESULTS PARENTS CAN SEE

Independent research studies on Blue's Clues, Daniel Tiger, and Super Why showed measurable gains in the exact skills Princess Penelope builds - critical thinking, kindness, and creative problem solving.

BUILT AROUND SKILLS THAT MATTER

Critical thinking is the foundation of how kids learn to navigate the world. Princess Penelope makes practicing those skills feel like the best part of the day.

"Princess Penelope's approach seems to be working. The IP's YouTube channel generated more than three million views in its first month (with only 1,500 subscribers). And the first episode of the series alone, released on January 19, already has 1.7 million views."
