If you’re looking to enjoy Spotify with your whole family, your fix is finally here! The streaming platform just unveiled an all-new slate of exclusive and original content developed for families to enjoy together — including CoComelon Story Time — a partnership with the No. 1 kids channel on YouTube CoComelon.
Launching today (January 24), CoComelon Story Time is an interactive storytelling show for preschoolers (2-5), full of classic fairy tales, global folktales and expanded nursery rhymes – told by the hugely popular & beloved CoComelon characters, JJ and Cody. It’s the perfect way to get your little one familiar with beloved stories like Humpty Dumpty, Jack and the Beanstalk, Three Little Pigs and other stories from around the world, which will be available in English, Spanish, German and Brazilian Portuguese.
“We’re thrilled to announce CoComelon’s first spoken word format with Spotify, the premier partner in audio,” said Patrick Reese, general manager at Moonbug Entertainment, which produces CoComelon, in a statement. “CoComelon’s goal has always been to inspire positivity and nurture a growth mindset for kids around the world, and this helps create a fun and new way to entertain and support our global audience.”
“We are so thrilled to be entering into this partnership with CoComelon to produce a series of original and exclusive content tailored to families,” echoed Max Cutler, head of new content initiatives at Spotify. “This is a major win for us as we continue to expand the scope of our podcast ambitions and help to drive the exponential growth of the audio industry.”
“Spotify is the only platform with the scale and infrastructure necessary to enable a partner like CoComelon to grow beyond their millions of highly loyal, passionate and engaged fans and transcend into podcasting. With their popularity and Spotify’s ability to distribute and amplify it in the audio space, the potential for the show’s reach is limitless,” he added.
Along with CoComelon Story Time, Spotify has also announced three upcoming original series: Gardenkeeper Gus (premiering January 31), 100 Cinderellas (premiering February 14) and Deep Blue Sea (premiering February 28).
All shows will be available to parents on the main Spotify app within the Family and Kids Hub, as well as on the Spotify Kids app, exclusive to Spotify Premium Family subscribers.
