New York City, New York Mar 19, 2026 (Issuewire.com) - Fresh off a four-star review from Common Sense Media, the educational children’s series Mia & Codie returns this April with a new season premiering on PBS member stations nationwide. Building on the momentum of its first season, Season 2 introduces new adventures, challenges, and concepts designed to spark curiosity and creativity while helping young learners develop the core thinking skills needed to succeed in math and literacy.
Mia & Codie follows big sis Mia, a curious problem-solver, and Codie, the “bro-bot” she created, as they explore everyday challenges through discovery, experimentation, and collaboration. Each episode combines storytelling, humor, and hands-on problem solving to introduce concepts that encourage children to think critically, ask questions, and prepare them for school.
Season 2 expands on the show’s educational mission by placing a strong emphasis on foundational thinking, the set of cognitive skills that allow young children to understand symbols, follow sequences, recognize patterns, and solve problems. Through playful exploration, Mia and Codie (along with Evu, Velvet, and new characters Jaxson and Otis!) demonstrate how these skills help kids approach challenges with confidence and creativity.
“Our goal with Mia & Codie is to make thinking visible and relatable for kids,” said Don Moody, Founder of Codie Blocks and creator of Mia & Codie. “Season 2 continues to build on the learning framework that made the first season resonate with families and educators. We want kids to see that asking questions, making mistakes, and trying again are all part of discovering how the world works.”
The first season of Mia & Codie quickly gained recognition and praise among parents and educators for its engaging approach to early learning, blending entertainment with meaningful skill-building. By focusing on curiosity-driven exploration, the series helps children develop the tools needed to support lifelong learning.
Mia & Codie Season 2 premieres April 1 on PBS member stations, with episodes designed for children, families, and classrooms alike.
