Blippi first appeared on YouTube in 2014, with John’s creative, educational videos gaining a following of almost 14 million subscribers on the platform. The show now also streams on several subscription services.

John revealed a couple of years ago that he did want children of his own eventually, and touched on why he thought his show had captured the imagination of kids.

“Watching Blippi become part of children’s lives and so in turn it became a part of their families’ lives. Blippi is continuing to grow because these children really love Blippi, and now their parents are talking about it and spreading the love,” he told The Spinoff.

“I believe that children are super smart and they have good intuition. I think they can tell that Blippi is genuine and I have fun doing what I do. That’s one huge thing I have that big companies just can’t hire an actor to do.”
