Minibods is an Singaporean-British-American computer-animated comedy television series produced by Moonbug Entertainment. As a learning-focused, preschool-centered spin-off of the Oddbods, it features five of the original characters as adorable toddlers alongside a brand new friend. Like its predecessor, it is a non-dialogue slapstick series where characters communicate entirely through expressive gestures, physical comedy, and silly gibberish sounds.

The show officially premiered on April 15, 2023, on its dedicated YouTube channel, inviting a brand-new generation of viewers into the whimsical world of the Land of Odd.
