Introducing “CoComelon - Kids Learn & Play,” the first learning app from the CoComelon universe

Early Learning Goes Interactive in the New Mobile App, Out August 15 for Apple and Android Users

LOS ANGELES – August 15, 2024 – Moonbug Entertainment, a part of Candle Media, today announced the launch of “CoComelon - Kids Learn & Play,” a new mobile learning app from the CoComelon universe. Based on the CoComelon world kids love, the app offers a safe, interactive experience where kids can play and learn alongside their favorite characters and songs they love.

With an expert-designed early childhood curriculum for kids aged 2-5, “CoComelon - Kids Learn & Play” is filled with fun and creative activities that support children’s social and emotional development – all set to their favorite nursery rhymes! 

Interactive apps can enrich cognitive development especially in the early foundational years. And learning alongside familiar characters children have bonds with - like JJ - can help improve outcomes. In the app, kids join JJ in an infinite playspace of games and experiences to learn shapes, colors, sounds, letters, numbers, daily routines, and more.  There are no right or wrong answers, just activities that help children develop fine motor skills, exercise thinking skills, grow their vocabulary, and encourage curiosity in a way that's easy for them to navigate, understand, and remember.

Kids can join JJ and his family at the beach, in the bath, at Old Macdonald’s Farm, and beyond, with other beloved friends like Cody, Nina and other friends joining the app in future months.

“CoComelon - Kids Learn & Play” is a preschool kids subscription app offering a wealth of activities. Many of them are free, and subscribing gives you unlimited access to everything the app has to offer, including regular updates with new mini-games and activities themed around popular CoComelon songs. Intro subscriptions are available for $4.99 during the first month, then $7.99 per month for full subscription access. 

Ed Barton, Vice President of Games and Interactive at Moonbug stated, “Kids love CoComelon, and this app is an entirely new way to interact with the songs and characters they love. We’ve created a high quality app experience with learning at the core, so young fans can develop essential skills through play - all in a safe and interactive playspace.”

Moonbug is a member of kidSAFE, and the learning app is built responsibly with no ads or bloatware, ensuring a safe environment for independent play.

“CoComelon - Kids Learn & Play” is now available on phones and tablets for Apple and Android devices, on the App Store and Google Play Store. For more information, visit moonbug.com/play.
