The wind-down song is the whole thing for us. Screen time used to end in a negotiation every single evening. Now she knows the song means it is finished, and she turns the tablet off herself. I did not expect a small production decision to change our bedtime.

Rachel Whitcombe

Rachel Whitcombe

Parent of two, Portland, OR

My son is nine and had already worked out that most children's content talks down to him. Big Explorers does not. He built a bridge out of newspaper that held four textbooks and then explained load-bearing to me over dinner. That was worth the subscription on its own.

Daniel Osei

Daniel Osei

Parent of one, Atlanta, GA

Three children, three age groups, three separate profiles that do not bleed into each other. The eleven year old cannot see what the four year old watches and, more importantly, the four year old cannot stumble into what the eleven year old is doing.

Parent of three, Austin, TX

We booked the Signature Party when we could not manage a real one. Twenty-two children on the call across four states, and the host used every single name. My daughter still talks about it and it was six months ago.

I went looking for the catch. There is no advertising, nothing to buy inside the app, and the parental controls are actually behind a separate PIN rather than a checkbox. It is the first children's service I have not had to lock down myself.

Parent of one, Denver, CO

The live make-alongs are the part I did not think would matter. The host waits. She actually waits for slower hands, and reads out names, and my daughter feels like she is in a room rather than in front of a video.

How we handle reviews. We publish what parents send us, we do not buy reviews and we do not remove one because it is critical. Names appear as the reviewer asked us to show them.
Our Hosts

The People On The Other Side Of The Screen

Named, credited and the same faces every week. Children recognise them, which is most of the point.

Marisol Vega

Marisol Vega

Lead Host, Tiny Sprouts

Twelve years in early years education before she ever faced a camera. Marisol sets the pace of every Tiny Sprouts episode and is the reason they end the way they do.

Dev Ramanathan

Dev Ramanathan

Lead Host, Big Explorers

A structural engineer who left bridges for cardboard. Dev insists on showing the attempts that failed, which is why children trust the ones that work.

Nora Whitfield

Nora Whitfield

Lead Host, Bright Sparks

A primary teacher and illustrator. Nora writes the make-alongs, and she will not sign one off until she has watched a five year old finish it unaided.

Amos Beck

Amos Beck

Lead Host, Creators Club

A documentary editor and music producer. Amos runs the live studios and gives the kind of feedback he wishes someone had given him at twelve.
