For parents

Everything grown-ups want to know about Fun Phil: age range, what kids learn and how we keep things safe.

What is Fun Phil?

Fun Phil is a learning show for young children that mixes live action with cartoon fun. Phil is a boy from faraway Fun Planet who landed in Dubai with his best friend Bibo, a funny red panda. To fly home, he has to teach his spaceship’s Brain Box everything he learns, so every adventure at a playground, attraction or landmark comes with a simple lesson. You can read the full story on Phil’s story.

What age is it for?

Fun Phil is made for curious kids aged 4 to 12. Younger children enjoy the colors, songs and movement, while older kids follow the story of Phil’s mission home, the adventures and the lessons inside them. It’s also great to watch together as a family.

What will my child learn?

  • Early maths: counting, numbers 1 to 20, adding and taking away
  • Letters, phonics and first words
  • Colors, shapes, days of the week and months of the year
  • The world around us: animals, planets, dinosaurs, flags and more
  • Creativity through simple paper crafts
  • New vocabulary from every place Phil visits

Is Fun Phil safe for kids?

Yes. Our videos are made for children and published as “made for kids” on YouTube, which switches off comments and personalised ads. This website has no sign-ups, no comments and no tracking, and videos only load from YouTube when you press play.

Where can we watch?

All episodes are free on the Fun Phil YouTube channel and right here on our videos page. We recommend watching together when you can, and talking about what Phil discovered.

Can Phil visit our venue or school?

We love discovering new places to explore. Playgrounds, attractions, schools and family brands can reach us through our contact page.
