Everyone I can think of who ever headed a children's cartoon hoped on some level it'd have a cool toy line in stores and in almost all cases the networks said no unless it was an older IP like turtles or star wars. The crews for almost every CN original, Nick toon or Disney animated series had their own dream ideas for dolls and action figures and plushes but none of that ever happened because the industry is convinced it just doesn't work with new IP.
But meanwhile, little indie *video games* have toys selling out at major retail chains.
And it's kind of shocking to realize it might be because indie video games are somehow now more visible to kids than "television shows." Kids can't bond anymore over cartoon series as easily, unless they all have the same streaming services. But they can all go on YouTube and see a guy pretending to get scared of huggly wuggly. They don't even have to play the games to be fans. Gaming has accidentally figured out the formula the cartoon industry never did. Imagine how much money they'd make if all their shows were always just totally free for kids to watch on YouTube.

I am BEGGING professional sports to consolidate their games into one convienent place to watch.
I do not want to get Amazon Prime for Monday games and then TNT for a Wednesday. Ope now it's Friday so let's head over to ESPN. BUT NOW it's the 3rd Thursday of the month and it rained on the 8th of the month so this broadcast will be on CSPAN instead of Cartoon Network with a special rebroadcast on Disney Channel with the game being played by the cast of Avatar: The Last Airbender.
It's legit insanity and this is the exact reason I will continue to sail the seven seas. Get fucked.

Online Games for Age Regression - Free to Play Internet Games for Agere on a Budget
Ciao lovelies! Today’s blog post topic was requested by Bee via our request form! I am working my way through the others, thank you all for your suggestions so far! Today I’ll be sharing a collection of links I’ve found to online games you can play for free! A lot of age regressors are out here on a budget after all, and not all of us can afford to buy new games all the time. But playing our same old games can be boring after a while. Luckily with the ideas below, you can have plenty of free online games to try the next time you are small and bored! Alright, let’s dive into this list!
I want to begin the list with Educational Game sites. These will have a learning component in the games, as they’re intended to help teach kiddos cool new facts about the world! On this section we have:
Educational Games:
Cool Math Games https://www.coolmathgames.com/
USA Mint (currency) Learning Games https://www.usmint.gov/learn/kids/games
Math Playground https://www.mathplayground.com/
NASA Kids Club https://www.nasa.gov/learning-resources/nasa-kids-club/
National Geographic Kids https://kids.nationalgeographic.com/games
Animal Jam https://www.animaljam.com/en
ABCya! Learning Games https://www.abcya.com/
The next section I’ll go into are game sites based on tv, like shows or networks specifically.
Television Games:
Nick Jr https://www.nickjr.com/games
Nickelodeon https://www.nick.com/games
Disney https://disneynow.com/all-games
PBS https://pbskids.org/games
Cartoon Network https://www.cartoonnetworkhq.com/games
Boomerang TV https://www.boomerangtv.co.uk/games
Sesame Street https://www.sesamestreet.org/games
This next section is my favorite, and I’m sure tons of you will realize exactly why, and maybe you’ll have similar nostalgic memories. But let me lay out the scene here. Picture this, you’re in your room/computer room and it's friday night, you’ve just had pizza for dinner, Rihanna is playing on the radio and you’re about to do your favorite activity- dress up games! So nostalgic…
Dress Up Game Sites:
Doll Divine https://www.dolldivine.com/
Azaelea’s Dolls https://www.azaleasdolls.com/
Girls Go Games https://www.girlsgogames.com/
Picrew https://picrew.me/
Pastel Katto https://pastelkattogames.com/

Dress Up Games https://www.dressupgames.com/
Meiker https://meiker.io/
eGirl Games https://www.egirlgames.net/
Dress Up https://www.dressup.com/
Lastly, here’s some more online games that I couldn’t figure out a special category for:
Unsorted:
Webkinz https://www.webkinz.com/
Chess Kid https://www.chesskid.com/
Poptropica https://www.poptropica.com/haxe/play/
Kidpix https://kidpix.app/
Webkinz Guide https://webkinzguide.com/wiki/Main_Page
