LOS ANGELES, Jan. 16, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Lingokids, the #1 early learning app trusted by over 100 million families worldwide, has teamed up with Moonbug Entertainment, the creators of global preschool favorites like Blippi and CoComelon. This exciting partnership means families using Lingokids can now enjoy exclusive content featuring Blippi, one of the world’s most popular preschool characters, designed to make learning even more fun for kids ages 2-8.
A First for Lingokids: Welcoming Outside Characters
For the first time, Lingokids is welcoming beloved characters from outside the app. “We are so excited to bring Moonbug’s characters to Lingokids,” said Cristóbal Viedma, CEO of Lingokids. “Blippi’s curiosity and love of exploring everyday life align perfectly with our mission to inspire kids to learn essential skills through play.”
Unique Content That Kids Will Love
This collaboration is aimed to blend Lingokids’ award-winning Playlearning™ methodology with Moonbug’s engaging storytelling. Parents can expect interactive games tailored to meet each child’s needs at their different developmental stages – all inside an environment where characters like Blippi, Meekah, and D.Boo, among others, become learning guides, promoting the development of skills such as vocabulary, creativity, logic, emotional intelligence, and many more.
Each piece of content is designed to respond to kids’ interests and learning pace, allowing them to immerse themselves in a universe of activities such as:
- Interactive storytelling
- Memory challenges and puzzles
- Creative expression activities
- Runner games featuring sports vocabulary
- Emotional learning through interactive photo experiences
“I’ve been a fan of Lingokids for a long time and was really excited to be able to bring the first ever third party IP to the app as they continue to expand. We know kids love Blippi and the curiosity he brings to everyday learning. It’s great seeing this come to life in the Lingokids app,” added Ed Barton, Moonbug’s Vice President of Gaming and Interactive.

Lingokids has become a go-to app for parents looking for 100% safe screen time that kids enjoy and parents trust. With its focus on developing both academic and life skills, Lingokids makes learning an adventure for children while giving parents peace of mind.
The new content featuring Blippi is already available on the Lingokids app with 10 new games to spark curiosity and learning in young minds. More games are expected to be added later this year. Furthermore, the company will continue exploring with Moonbug Entertainment, as well as other children’s media companies, more opportunities to build Lingokids app games around existing popular IP.
