Cat Ninja Has Entered the Chat… and YouTube
If your kid has ever raced through a Cat Ninja book on Epic and immediately asked, “Is there another one?”—we’ve got good news.
Epic is officially launching all-new YouTube content starring everyone’s favorite masked hero: Cat Ninja.
Our first big release? A brand-new longform learning video called “Cat Ninja Counts 1-2-3,” designed to help young learners practice numbers through playful storytelling, humor and interactive moments that feel more like entertainment than learning time.
What We Are Bringing to the Epic Channel
Families already turn to Epic for books kids actually want to read. But we kept hearing the same thing from parents and teachers:
“Can we get more Cat Ninja content outside the app?”
So we started imagining what that could look like.
Not loud, overstimulating videos designed to keep kids glued to a screen forever. There’s enough of that already. We wanted to create something different—videos that still feel rooted in curiosity, learning, storytelling and imagination.
The kind of screen time that feels a little better.
The kind you put on during a rainy afternoon while making dinner and don’t immediately regret five minutes later.
Start With “Cat Ninja Counts 1-2-3”
Our first longform video is built especially for younger learners who love playful repetition, silly surprises and familiar characters.
In “Cat Ninja Counts 1-2-3,” kids will:
- Practice early number recognition
- Follow along with interactive counting moments
- Meet fun Cat Ninja characters
- Stay engaged through humor and storytelling
And this is just the beginning.
We’ve got more longform videos, shorts, read-alongs, educational adventures and interactive learning content already in the works.
Get to Know Your Favorite Characters
The world of Cat Ninja keeps getting bigger.
Fans can dive deeper into favorite characters, discover new adventures and even explore prequel stories with Kitten Ninja. From quick character spotlights to behind-the-scenes moments, there’s even more to explore beyond the books.
Built for Real Life
One thing parents tell us all the time is that learning works best when it doesn’t feel forced.
That’s why these videos are designed for all the little in-between moments families already have:
- Quiet time after school
- Travel days
- Saturday mornings
- Summer learning breaks
- Waiting rooms
- Rainy afternoons
- “I just need 15 minutes to finish this email” moments
Teachers can use them, too—especially for transitions, enrichment, early finishers or simply giving students another way to connect with stories and characters they already love.
Discover More Stories and Adventures
There’s a lot more coming to the Epic YouTube channel.
More stories. More characters. More interactive learning adventures kids genuinely enjoy.
And honestly? We can’t wait to show you what’s coming.
