Upcoming preschool shows for 2023

Besides revealing dates for this fall, Netflix also announced two new shows coming in 2023. The first is the animated preschool show Princess Power, based on the book series Princesses Wear Pants by Savannah Guthrie and Allison Oppenheim.

Princess Power will celebrate girl power and self-expression with four princesses from different fruit kingdoms: Kira Kiwi, Beatrice “Bea” Blueberry, Rita Raspberry, and Penelope “Penny” Pineapple.

From Netflix, “These princesses embrace their differences and become stronger together to help their fellow fruitizens and make their world a better place. Princess Power‘s whimsical, aspirational joy comes with a timely message: that it’s not just what you wear but what you do that makes all the difference.”

Also coming in 2023 is CoComelon Lane, which will explore the lives of JJ and his best friends (Cody, Cece, Nina, Bella, and Nico) as they experience life’s big moments for little kids.
