Meet Daniel Tiger's Friends
WRITTEN BY: AUDREY CHANEY
Daniel Tiger has been lighting up playtime for years, and now, he’s bringing his best friends along! We’re thrilled to welcome Jodi Platypus, Katerina Kittycat, Miss Elaina, O the Owl, Prince Wednesday, and, of course, Daniel Tiger, to our newest 6-pack of Glo Pals Light-Up Cubes. Follow along to learn more about how each neighbor brings their own sparkle to sensory play!
MEET THE NEW NEIGHBORS
Jodi Platypus | Jodi is thoughtful, sensitive, and learning to embrace change. She might be shy at first, but she is deeply kind and says “Neato!” when something makes her happy!
Katerina Kittycat | Graceful and musical, Katerina loves to twirl, sing, and express herself through dance! She’s sweet and sensitive, often navigating emotions with gentle curiosity.
Miss Elaina | She’s bold, bouncy, and spirited! Elaina tends to like to do things her own way—often backwards—and brings high energy and creativity to every adventure.
O the Owl | He’s curious, a book-lover, and is a gentle soul who appreciates facts and order. O often has to remind his friends to slow down and think things through!
Prince Wednesday | He‘s royal with a flair for the dramatic! Prince Wednesday is imaginative, expressive, and loves tossing “royally” into every sentence. He’s learning to manage his big feelings but is an extremely loyal friend!
SENSORY PLAY BENEFITS
Our cubes truly make sensory play shine! They provide so many incredible sensory play benefits, and here are just a few:
- The water-activated glow adds visual stimulation and an exciting element of surprise 👀
- They help your little one build their fine motor skills and discover the magic of cause-and-effect through hands-on play 💦
- They help support emotional regulation through calming, repetitive play 😌
- They open up a world of storytelling, pretend play, and character exploration opportunities 🪄
Whether it’s bath time, sensory bins, or quiet moments of imaginative play, our Glo Pals Cubes help kids connect with their feelings, their senses, and now, their favorite friends from the Neighborhood of Make-Believe! We hope you’re just as excited as we are to welcome them to the crew! We absolutely cannot wait to see how your kiddos incorporate these new cubes into their everyday play—tag us on socials @glopals, and use #glopals to share all of your adventures with us!
