Hopster reports on representation and screen stereotypes in kids TV
Our new research finds that top preschool TV shows in the UK poorly represents disability, LGBT+, the working class, have high rates of gender stereotyping, and push ethnic minority characters into the background.
Kids can celebrate Pride Month, with Hopster’s special themed area
We're challenging the lack of LGBT+ representation in children's media with our exclusive collection of inclusive shows, songs, and books.

Enter a magical world
Hopster is full of characters and content that kids and parents already know and love. But what sets us apart from the competition is the magical environment we have built up around that content. We know parents appreciate all of the little touches that have gone into creating a world kids can explore and characters they can fall in love with.
How we help your kids learn
We believe that entertainment and education can go hand in hand. With that in mind, we have created our very own curriculum alongside leading academics in childhood education and cognitive development. Our unique Discovery Learning Map is closely aligned with the UK early years foundation stage framework and formal early childhood curricula from around the world.
Tailored to the individual
We know that no two children learn in the same way; they go through different stages of development and pick up different kinds of thinking skills at each stage. Our Discovery Learning Map supports the kids with these individual learning journeys as they discover for themselves things that inspire, excite and fascinate them along the way.
Making screen time smart
At Hopster entertainment and education can go hand in hand. From games that develop language and literacy to shows exploring the world around them, children’s learning at the heart of everything we do.
