Popular Kids’ TV Channel Tiny Pop Gets Ready to Debut ELMO’S WORLD Starring Sesame Street’s Loveable Red Monster in January 2020

Popular Kids’ TV Channel to Welcome Sesame Street’s Elmo in the New Year

Tiny Pop is welcoming everyone’s favourite furry red monster in January 2020. Parents and toddlers can tune into the brand new re-imagined Elmo’s World, delighting in five-minute interactive episodes full of fun and familiar pre-school topics, live action films and co-operative thinking games such as matching, sorting and counting.

Young viewers will join Elmo as he uses his imagination to transform his bedroom into the beautiful chalk-drawn environment of Elmo’s World. There, they will embark on new learning adventures with Elmo and his friend Smartie, an animated mobile phone, as they dive into the topic of the day.

Multiple Tony Award-winning actor, clown, and comedian Bill Irwin (Fool Moon, How the Grinch Stole Christmas) returns as Mr. Noodle, and he has brought some new family members to join the fun! New characters include Mr. Noodle’s two brothers, played by actor and Grammy Award-winner Daveed Diggs (Broadway’s Hamilton, Ferdinand, Wonder), and comedian Daniel Koren and their dogs Schmoodle, Floodle and Frank.

Before Elmo says goodbye each day, he invites viewers to get up and dance! Elmo’s World is sure to have children laughing, learning and, better yet, dancing!

Elmo will be joining Tiny Pop favourites such as PJ Masks, Molang and fellow Sesame Street resident Cookie Monster in Cookie Monster’s Foodie Truck.

Elmo’s World is produced by Sesame Workshop, the nonprofit educational organization behind Sesame Street.
