Word Party (also known asJim Henson's Word Party) is an American animated children's television series that began streaming onNetflix in 2016. The series was created byThe Jim Henson Company, using Henson Digital Puppetry Studio.
The vocabulary-building program features a group of five young animals, Kip the wallaby (John Tartaglia), Bailey the elephant (Victor Yerrid), leader Franny the cheetah (Donna Kimball), the mascot Lulu the panda (Dorien Davies), and Tilly the tortoise (Alice Dinnean), "as they sing, dance and play."[1] The show invites young viewers to help teach the baby animals new words, practice these new words themselves, and celebrate these achievements with a "Word Party!", hence the series' title name. The show is narrated byPatina Miller.
