Moonbug, Amazon partner on kids’ content

Arpo Robot Babysitter is aimed at three- to seven-year-olds

LA- and London-based children’s content company Moonbug has partnered with Amazon’s kids subscription service to produce and distribute original content for children.

The first project from the partnership will be animated series Arpo Robot Babysitter, based on YouTube show Arpo, which will premiere exclusively on Amazon Kids+.

The non-dialogue show, targeted at 3-7s, will see Arpo face new challenges, from caring for a baby called Cookie to adjusting to a team of new robots.

Andy Yeatman, MD of the Americas at Moonbug, said: “Arpo’s unique format makes it accessible to kids across the globe, making them laugh as they meet new characters and sharpen their problem-solving skills.”
