Tap. Travel. Explore. Learn. Sing!

Made for the littlest hands. No menus to work out, no words to read and no wrong answers – just big, bright things to tap and a kind guide who loves to explain them.

  1. Tap a place

    Pick a planet, a jungle, a coral reef or a time portal. One tap is all it takes.

  2. Go on a journey

    Blast off in a rocket, bump along in a safari rover, dive in a submarine or whizz back in a time pod.

  3. Explore

    Tap the sparkles to see animals move, volcanoes puff and whales splash – by day and by night.

  4. Sing & learn

    Your guide reads short, true facts aloud, and every place has its own song that sings them.

A song for every place

Music is at the heart of Little Explorers. Land somewhere new and its very own song begins – a catchy, original sing-along where every verse sings one real fact, so children remember it long after the tablet goes away.

25 original sing-along songs

  • Facts you can sing

    Short choruses that are easy to join in with, and verses that teach – why Mars is red, how whales sing, which dinosaurs were the biggest.

  • Sing it again!

    Big song buttons, one for each verse. Tap any of them to jump straight to a favourite part – as many times as they like.

  • Theme tunes

    Every world has its own music for choosing where to go and for the journey there – a rocket groove, a safari road-trip tune, a submarine dive and a time-travel theme.

  • Dance along

    Professor Pip dances to the beat, plays the banjo on Mercury and conducts a choir of singing flames on the Sun.

Four worlds to explore

Each world has its own guide, its own way to travel and lots of places to visit. Start in Space for free, then unlock them all.

Free! The Sun and the planets of the Solar System in the Space world of Little Explorers

With Professor Pip, space scientist
