Did we miss something on diversity?
Research shows a connection between kids' healthy self-esteem and positive portrayals in media. That's why we've added a new "Diverse Representations" section to our reviews that will be rolling out on an ongoing basis. You can help us help kids by suggesting a diversity update.

A Lot or a Little?
The parents' guide to what's in this TV show.
What Parents Need to Know
Parents need to know that Storybots: Laugh, Learn, Sing is a music video compilation show featuring the zany educational robots of YouTube and Ask the Storybots fame. The hour-long episodes feature Storybots songs that have previously been released, and each hour focuses on a theme, like the alphabet. With no iffy content, these music videos are appropriate for the youngest viewers (though some of the jokes may land better with 5-6 year olds).

What's the Story?
Storybots: Laugh, Learn, Sing is a one-stop-shop where Storybots fans can find all of their favorite music videos in one place. One hour-long episode includes robots Beep, Bing, Bang, Boop, and Bo singing a short and entertaining song about each letter of the alphabet. Before each song is a short animated explainer video that introduces the upcoming music video. The songs and music videos have been previously released on other platforms, but Laugh, Learn, Sing turns them into one long, continual playlist.
Is It Any Good?
Storybots got its start on YouTube with catchy music videos for preschoolers, and the songs themselves in Laugh, Learn, Sing are a lot of fun. This particular music video compilation series is a bit so-so; the intro videos for each music video are just rehashing content from the songs and seems like a bit of padding that kids may not appreciate. The Storybots franchise is great fun, but this particular show has a fair bit of learning 'broccoli' sprinkled in-between the fun stuff. Grown-ups will appreciate the long length of these compilations and that they're full of educational content, but kids will probably enjoy the similar, but more silly and Storybots-y Storybots Super Songs series more.
Talk to Your Kids About ...
Families can talk about learning with TV. Parents can extend the learning by asking their children what other words they can think of that start with each letter. Or, make a list that you keep on your fridge and write down letter A-Z words as you come across them in your everyday lives.
Families can play the Storybots songs on their favorite music streaming service. Which letter song is your favorite? Why?
