The 52×7-minute show showcases nature and celebrates the joy of discovering the outside world. Children can come along to discover dancing bees, things that need explaining, how you find your way without a map and more. Jetpack Distribution has international distribution rights outside of the U.K.

The show is set to hit U.K. screens in 2025.

The series is directed by Kitty Taylor, executive produced by Karina Stanford-Smith, Snipple Originals director, and produced in Snipple’s animation studio.

Stanford-Smith said: “Through this series, we realize the magic of—first and foremost—making preschoolers giggle. It’s pure heartfelt entertainment with nuggets of soft learning. A beautiful series about discovery, imagination, laughter and, of course, friendship. We are taking viewers on a journey with our little characters to reach the ‘woohoo’ moments together.”

Gillian Calvert Ridge, Jetpack Distribution’s global distribution director of acquisitions and development, added: “At MIPCOM this autumn, we are looking forward to presenting this show to international buyers. With the universal themes of comedy, discovery and friendship and the interactive moments to ‘woohoo’ along to, it’s perfect for screens around the world.”

Milkshake! features a range of programs, available on platforms including My5 and Paramount+.

Louise Bucknole, General Manager (GM) for Paramount Kids and Family for the U.K. and Ireland, commented: “We know that kids love to explore nature and the outdoors and we want Milkshake! shows to reflect and inspire them in that journey in a fun and accessible way. The Woohoos! perfectly encapsulates this. Those ‘ooo’ moments are a nod to the rollercoaster of amazing discovery and learning that preschool kids constantly navigate—that moment of realization when the penny drops! We can’t wait to see this brilliant show brought to life on Milkshake! with the curious and loveable Woohoos!”
