Muppet Babies is an American animated television series featuring toddler versions of the Muppets characters that began airing on Disney Jr. on March 23, 2018[1] and is aimed at a target audience of children from aged 4–7.[2] It is a reboot of the original 1984 animated series of the same name. 71 episodes were produced.
