What is Ollie's Bayou?
Ollie's Bayou is a children's educational-entertainment brand featuring Ollie the Otter and his friends, the Bayou Besties. Set in a warm, cozy bayou, Ollie's Bayou blends animated songs, stories, and gentle learning made for preschool and early-elementary children (PreK-2nd grade). Alongside Addie the Alligator, Sorrel Squirrel, Rollie Raccoon, Holly Heron, Tucker Turtle, and their teacher Ms. Gracie, kids explore letter sounds, phonics, sight words, counting, and the ABCs, while learning to share, make friends, and love school. Every song and story is gentle, joyful, and genuinely educational, turning screen time into learning time. Ollie's Bayou began as an animated YouTube series and now lives here at olliesbayou.com, where children can watch videos, sing along, and play free learning games.
Who is Ollie the Otter?
Ollie the Otter is the star of Ollie's Bayou, an overly optimistic little otter with warm brown fur, a cream belly, and his signature green leaf neckerchief. He loves to swim and play in the bayou, loves going to school, and never explores without his magnifying glass for finding things. Curious and kind, Ollie invites children to look closer, learn, and see the bright side.
What does Ollie's Bayou teach?
