Little baby bum (Noto anche come LBB e LittleBabyBum ) is a British children's CGI-animated web series created in 2011 by Cannis Holder and her husband, Derek Holder. The show revolves around Mia, a young girl, her family, her peers and a group of anthropomorphic characters. The format of the show consists of 3D animated videos of both traditional nursery rhymes and original children's songs, but with a modern aesthetic, which supports infant speech development through song and repetition. It was acquired by Moonbug Entertainment in 2018. The show is available on YouTube, BBC iPlayer, and distributed on SVOD and AVOD players, and over 40 platforms including Netflix, Amazon Prime and Hulu. Little Baby Bum is available in English, Spanish, Dutch, Brazilian Portuguese, Italian, Russian, Polish, German, French, Mandarin Chinese, Japanese and Turkish
Cannis and Derek uploaded their first video, Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, to YouTube on August 29, 2011. This was followed, four months later, by their second upload, Baa Baa Black Sheep, a more complex and slightly longer video.
Little Baby Bum's popularity increased after the release of his second video compilation which was about an hour long. To create an hour-long video they combined individual videos into long-form videos. The rationale behind this change was that "parents shouldn't have to keep hitting the play button after each video was finished."
