Milkshake! Expands Live-Action Slate

5’s Milkshake! has expanded its live-action slate with the order of two more seasons of Animal Care Club and a new preschool series.

Animal Care Club, produced by Daisybeck Studios, sees young carers team up with animal experts to gain hands-on experience caring for pets, farm animals, wildlife and exotic species. The newly ordered episodes are slated to premiere in 2026.

Milkshake! has also greenlit Move It, Milkshakers!, an interactive preschool series designed to get 3- to 5-year-olds moving, from Doc Hearts. Each ten-minute episode will focus on a letter of the alphabet and introduce a themed “signature move” through original songs, physical activity and playful storytelling. It will be presented by Kemi Majeks and Derek Moran.

“We’re excited to add Move It, Milkshakers! and two more seasons of Animal Care Club to Milkshake’s 2026 lineup,” said Louise Bucknole, senior VP for kids and family at Paramount UK & Ireland. “Move It, Milkshakers! is a brilliant blend of movement, music and literacy supporting early years foundation stage milestones and providing preschoolers with fun and interactive ways to learn. Meanwhile, Animal Care Club is a show rooted in empathy, teamwork and children’s love of animals. We’re proud to expand this format, giving preschoolers and their families even more inspiring stories of care and connection.”
