With success of first external IP partnership, the #1 entertainment platform for kids cements leadership
and makes clear: safe, interactive, and engaging content is the benchmark for the future of kids’
entertainment
LOS ANGELES— October 16, 2025 – Lingokids, the leading entertainment platform for children under 8,
announced today that its exclusive Blippi content has soared past 200 million plays within just ten
months. Attracting the attention of over 20 million unique players, and demonstrating the power and reach
of the Lingokids platform, this collaboration ranks as one of the fastest-growing third-party integrations
since Lingokids began incorporating external intellectual properties (IP) into its platform.
“The remarkable success of Lingokids exclusive Blippi content exemplifies why we are committed to
becoming the ultimate digital destination for kids,” stated Cristóbal Viedma, CEO of Lingokids. “We are
revolutionizing children’s entertainment and education by transforming from a single-IP app to a multi-IP
platform, featuring beloved characters and curated content families enjoy in a safe, ad-free hub where
kids learn through interactive play.”
In late 2024, Lingokids and Moonbug Entertainment collaboratively launched a series of interactive
games, guided by beloved characters including Blippi, Meekah, and D.Bo. These games are meticulously
tailored to support children at various developmental stages, enhancing vital skills such as vocabulary,
creativity, logic, and emotional intelligence. The Lingokids development team enriched the content by
integrating Blippi and friends into various formats such as interactive storytelling, puzzles, role-play, and
problem-solving activities, all designed to stimulate curiosity and boost confidence.
“Blippi is all about hands-on discovery, and this partnership lets families experience that spirit in a whole
new way through Lingokids,” said Ed Barton, VP of Games & Interactive at Moonbug Entertainment.
“Together, we’ve built a space where kids can explore, learn, and play safely — with the same curiosity
that makes Blippi so loved around the world.”
Since Lingokids first external IP integration with Moonbug Entertainment’s Blippi, the brand has continued
to innovate and expand its catalog of content, leaning heavily into entertainment to keep kids engaged,
while collaborating with educational leaders like NASA to create space lessons, Stanford Scientists for
nutritional insights, and the World Literacy Foundation to teach children reading and spelling
fundamentals. Additionally, the app features exclusive partnership content with other iconic entertainment
brands, including Pocoyo.
This partnership success closely follows Lingokids announcement that it secured $120 million USD in
new financing. This funding round, a combination of equity and go-to-market investment, was
spearheaded by BullhoundCapital and General Catalyst’s Customer Value Fund, with the participation of
Nextalia Ventures and other existing investors. The funds will accelerate Lingokids’ integration of even
more beloved third-party brands and characters into its trusted Playlearning™ universe, while also
unlocking the power of AI to dramatically increase the speed and variety of content production.
