MGA Entertainment (MGA), and its subsidiary MGA Zapf Creation GmbH together announce Season 2 of the BABY born animated series, which premiered Friday, August 23 on the official YouTube channel. The first episode of the season is also featured on the YouTube Kids homepage as part of their Back-to-School takeover this month. The series is inspired by the popular toy brand, which has been on shelves for 33 years and sold close to 27 million dolls around the world.
Millions of viewers tuned in to the first season of the show, which centers on characters Emma, Teddy and their friends. The second season will introduce preschoolers and toddlers to an all-new character, songs, and nursery rhymes for even more educational, heart-felt fun.
Season 2 comprises a total of 18 episodes, each five minutes long. Kids can sing along to 13 new original songs, including “We Entertained You” and “Creaky, Squeaky, Spooky Fun,” and five nursery rhymes, like “The ABCs.” Plus, viewers will meet Baby Annabell, the latest baby on the block to join in the make-believe fun of the show.
“BABY born goes beyond the doll to be a constant companion in children’s everyday lives through the world of entertainment,” said Anne Parducci, MGA Entertainment’s Chief Content Officer. “Inspiring imaginative play, empathy, and creativity, BABY born dolls are kids’ babies, best friends and favorite show all in one!”
Series Synopsis: Based on the real-life dolls and teddy bear, the popular characters master new everyday challenges, immerse themselves in an imaginative world and learn a lesson or two about everyday life. Real life babies cannot do much, but in the world of BABY born they can do everything the big kids can do and more. Why? Because they play make-believe!
Emma brings her stuffed bear, Teddy, and her duck on wheels, Berta, to life in her imagination and experiences the most exciting adventures with them and her friends. Watch as they play make-believe school, scavenger hunts, trick-or-treating and even flying to the clouds! But with big adventures also come big challenges. Every new episode brings social and emotional struggles to overcome, teamwork, building friendships and tons of fun!
Baby born dolls and accessories are available now in the U.S. at select Target, Walmart, Amazon and MGA Shop, as well as major retailers internationally.
