Peppa Pig’s Play-A-Long Podcast encourages families to embrace life’s adventures with their pre-schoolers and will be released this July.
Audible, a leading provider of spoken word entertainment, has announced Peppa Pig’s Play-A-Long Podcast, the first release as part of a podcasting deal between Audible and Hasbro.
Building on the cherished legacy of Peppa Pig, this podcast invites listeners into Peppa’s world with six episodes, each spanning 15 minutes. Voiced by Amelie Bea Smith as Peppa Pig, the podcast features Peppa and her pals in a mix of interactive games, outdoor adventures and sing-alongs with her new band, The Piggy-Wigs. Whether it’s a companion during car rides or a calming wind-down before bedtime, Peppa Pig’s Play-A-Long Podcast has been designed as an immersive experience for the whole family.
Peppa Pig’s Play-A-Long Podcast provides another medium through which Peppa can inspire confidence and foster development in pre-schoolers. As a lifelong friend, Peppa Pig encourages kids to jump in together and explore the world around them, while instilling confidence to treat every first step as a new adventure – from the everyday to the epic.
Themes in the podcast, including Are We There Yet?, an episode supporting pre-schoolers on long journeys, and an episode about anger entitled Very Big Feelings, are designed specifically to help families with pre-schoolers recognise and navigate their big emotions.
Aurelie de Troyer, head of Regional Content Europe at Audible said: “It’s been wonderful collaborating with team at Hasbro to bring Peppa’s first ever podcast to our audiences, on this special anniversary year for the iconic show. Having Peppa behind the mic at Audible’s London studios was an absolute delight.”
As the animated show celebrates its 20th anniversary this year, the rich storytelling for all family listening occasions hs been created to reaffirm Peppa’s commitment to providing quality entertainment for families.
Kristin McKay, senior vice president and general manager, Global Brands, Fashion & Pre-school at Hasbro, said: “For 20 years, Peppa has been the first best friend of children around the globe, inspiring them to confidently jump into all of life’s muddy puddles. She’s come to life on screens and in books, along with engaging toys and live experiences. Now, with Audible, we’re proud to deliver even more ways for fans and families to connect with their favourite piggy with podcasts to bring Peppa wherever they are.”
Peppa Pig’s Play-A-Long Podcast is available exclusively on Audible from 11th July and available to pre-order now at www.audible.co.uk. Audible membership may be required.
Prior to the podcast launch, new episodes of Peppa Pig will be airing on TV for the first time on 25th May, exclusively on Milkshake.
Kicking off with the 3-part wedding party special, featuring the guest voices of Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom, the brand new episodes are also in celebration of the iconic animated character’s 20th anniversary this year. As part of the celebrations, Peppa Pig herself will be in the Milkshake studio on Saturday 25th May and throughout half term.
