The preschool series ‘Little Angel’ follows Baby John and his family—sister Jill, brother Jack, Mom, and Dad—through music-led stories built around classic nursery rhymes and original songs. Developed out of a hugely popular YouTube channel, the franchise was acquired by Moonbug Entertainment (the company behind ‘CoComelon’ and ‘Blippi’), which expanded its global distribution. ‘Little Angel’ comes to Disney+ on Tuesday, September 30.

Episodes center on everyday kid milestones and social-emotional learning themes (sharing, being kind, trying new things), delivered via sing-along segments designed for toddlers and young preschoolers. Family-friendly shorts commonly feature repeatable choruses and simple story beats that encourage participation; critics and parenting resources generally categorize it as gentle, educational fare for the youngest viewers.
