Sky Kids has commissioned two new Sky Originals, Let’s Game: Worldbuilders and MC Grammar: Rap Tales.

Following the first two seasons of Sky Original Let’s Game; YouTube gamers DanTDM, Yammy, Jelly, Slogo, LDShadowLady, EthanGamer and I am Sanna will take on a series of challenges including speed building, build offs and much more, in a new addition to the franchise, Let’s Game: Worldbuilders. The series is produced by Monrae Productions and Nest Productions.

Sky has also collaborated once more with award-winning teacher turned rapper Jacob Mitchell in MC Grammar: Rap Tales.  Each episode of the animated series tells a contemporary version of a classic fairy tale as ‘The Grammar Gang’ morph into fairy tale characters with a modern twist like Jack and the Beat-stalk and Goldi-rocks as they sing and rap tales in the vibrant MC Grammar universe.  The series is produced by Monkey.

Also on the slate are the already announced Pip & Posy: Let’s Learn from Magic Light and Isadora Moon, produced by Kelebek Media.

Pip and Posy: Let’s Learn is a new off-shoot from the show based on books by Gruffalo-illustrator Axel Scheffler. The show will see Pip, Posy and their friends use their sense of fun and imagination to explore a range of concepts from the early years curriculum.

Isadora Moon, adapted from author and illustrator Harriet Muncaster’s international best-selling book series, is a brand-new animated series “full of humour, heart and magical adventures.” Enchanted and human worlds collide as 8-year-old half-fairy half-vampire, Isadora Moon, chooses to go to human school, navigating all sorts of adventures with her friends.

Lucy Murphy, Director of Kids Content at Sky UK said: “We are delighted to bring four great new premium shows to Sky Kids. From early years learning with the gorgeous Pip and Posy and worldbuilding with huge talent from the gaming world via another great format, to MC Grammar’s earworm raps and the joy of the world of Isadora Moon, there really is something for children of all ages to fall in love with.”
