Get ready to be whisked away with Butterbean’s Café, Nickelodeon's brand-new animated preschool series about a fairy named Butterbean and her adventures running a neighborhood café and magical bakery, premiering Monday 12th November 2018, only on Nick Jr. on Nickelodeon USA!
Butterbean’s Café is an animated preschool series about a fairy named Butterbean who runs a neighborhood café and magical bakery. She and her fairy friends serve up the healthiest snacks and sweetest treats in Puddlebrook – a small town of fairies and anthropomorphized animals called Brookies. Butterbean’s special bean magic, the fairies’ magic kitchen tools, and the team’s can-do spirit all combine to make their café the most awesome eatery in town, one that’s always much busier than greedy and competitive Ms. Marmalady’s across the brook. That’s because Butterbean has a sure-fire recipe for success – a spoonful of leadership, a dash of entrepreneurial spirit and just a sprinkle of fairy magic!
Butterbean’s Cafe features creative cooking, and a social-emotional curriculum that highlights entrepreneurial and leadership skills. The currently confirmed characters in the show are: Butterbean, Keesha, Cricket, Jasper, Ms. Marmalady, Poppy, Miss Honeybook and Reuben. Created by Jonny Belt and Robert Scull, the creators of Bubble Guppies, the series is produced by Brown Bag Films (Peter Rabbit) in Ireland, and is slated to launch on Nickelodeon and Nick Jr. channels around the world soon.
Update (10/15): To celebrate the upcoming launch of Butterbean’s Café, Nick Jr. has digitally premiered a full episode from Nickelodeon's brand-new animated preschool series, which you can watch here on NickJr.com's all-new Butterbean’s Café show page!
