ARTIST OVERVIEW:
StoryBots has made learning fun for millions of kids around the world with its collection of short-form books, songs and videos – which have racked up more than a half billion online views – and its hit Netflix original series, the Emmy Award-winning Ask the StoryBots and StoryBots Super Songs.
Originally launched in 2012, StoryBots was the brainchild of the brothers behind JibJab and centers on a cast of curious and colorful little creatures who live in the world beneath our screens and help answer kids’ biggest questions. More than 1.5 million families have created StoryBots accounts, and its mobile apps for iPad, iPhone and Apple TV have been downloaded more than 5 million times.
Known best for its catchy and hilarious music videos exploring topics such as numbers, shapes, emotions, dinosaurs and outer space, StoryBots made its TV debut in fall 2016 with the Netflix original series Ask the StoryBots and StoryBots Super Songs. Starring the voice of Judy Greer, Ask the StoryBots features guest appearances from Whoopi Goldberg, Jay Leno, Kevin Smith and more. The show was a runaway hit, named one of Netflix’s most “binged” children’s series, while winnng the Daytime Emmy Award for outstanding interactive enhancement to a daytime program/series and being just one of two kids’ shows nominated for a Peabody Award.
Beyond its website and mobile apps, StoryBots content is also seen on YouTube, Sprout, PlayKids, Azoomee, ToonGoggles, Hopster, Curious World, Fun Brain, Roku TV and on American Airlines flights. StoryBots released its first collection of print books with Random House, with titles appearing in-store at Target starting late October.
StoryBots also offers a free platform for teachers called StoryBots Classroom. Used in 35,000+ classrooms around the world, StoryBots Classroom won the 2017 Teachers’ Choice Award from Learning Magazine.
NOT FOR PUBLIC: Ask the StoryBots returns to Netflix this winter with a holiday special, A StoryBots Christmas, guest starring Ed Asner as Santa Claus, and a second season in fall 2018 with appearances from Ed Norton, Kristen Schaal, Wanda Sykes, Ali Wong, Christina Applegate, Snoop Dogg and more.
