Sunny Bunnies

Sunny Bunnies (Russian: Солнечные зайчики) is an animated children's television series produced by Digital Light Studio (for its first 6 seasons and part of the 7th) and Animation Café (season 7 onwards). The show currently consists of nine seasons, with 26 episodes each. The ninth season was launched on December 6, 2024, and is airing on YouTube. Sunny Bunnies is broadcast in more than 160 countries internationally, and its YouTube channel launched in April 2016 with management support from DHX-owned online kidsnet WildBrain. Sunny Bunnies also currently streams on Yippee TV, a Christian-based American children's subscription video on-demand over-the-top streaming service.
The Sunny Bunnies are a group of mischievous, and friendly magical bunnies spawned from the sun. In each episode they appear in seemingly randomly chosen locations, ranging from the local park and various other places throughout the world. During these endeavors, the characters end up at odds with each other and clash, leaving a trail of chaos and destruction in their wake, or play kids' games to amuse themselves. As opposed to most other preschool-oriented shows, Sunny Bunnies heavily utilizes absurdist humor and slapstick to drive its comedy.
At the end of every episode, several "bloopers" are featured, either showing something happening during the episode's in-universe production, a clip from the episode itself, bloopers of scenes not shown in the episode, extensions of the episode, or something else entirely. The series puts a heavy focus on the main five, their personalities, their semi-dysfunctional relationship with one another, and their dynamics.
Note: Starting with "Magic Eraser", all episodes would be first released on the official YouTube channel.
Due to the Russian invasion of Ukraine, as of this season, the series' studio has been relocated from Belarus to Poland.
In March 2020, it was announced that an official Sunny Bunnies video game was in development by video game company 9th Impact. On 7 March 2023, "Sunny Bunnies: Magic Pop!" was launched on the iOS App Store and Google Play Store. The game is a puzzle where players tap three or more adjoining of the same color in order to make them magically "pop" and count towards achievement of the level objective. An episode of the TV series was released on the same day to promote the game. In the episode, the bunnies discover a digital game on a computer and start playing. One of the bunnies, Boo, unwittingly knocks over the screen, crushing the others and somehow transporting them inside the game itself. After lifting up the computer, he discovers how to play the game and complete the objective to "pop" his friends out of the game and back into reality, thus restoring things to normal.
In early 2018 another game, an app entitled "Sunny Bunnies: Coloring Book" was launched on Google Play Store and on 3 May 2019, an updated version was released. The app is said to be committed to creating a safe and educational environment for children: girls and boys of 2–6 years of age. The colorful images in the game are designed to enhance pattern recognition and develop creative problem solving skills. There are also rewards which included at many levels including coloring multiple pictures at day or over a number of days to allow prizes for all players.
The series has been licensed in the US by Evolution, and merchandise was announced for a Fall 2018 release at the New York Toy Fair 2018, including light-up and bouncing plush toys, talking plush toys, large huggable plush toys, and a "bunny blast cannon" playset alongside figurines.
