A warmly affectionate, endlessly playful animated series about toddlers turning everyday moments into imaginative adventures, built entirely on friendship and discovery.

Focuses on a group of toddlers, most prominently Tommy, Chuckie, Phil, Lil, and Angelica, and their day-to-day lives, usually involving common life experiences that become adventures in the babies' imaginations. Adults in the series are almost always unaware of what the children are up to; however, this only provides more room for the babies to explore and discover their surroundings.
