If you haven't heard of Lenny Pearce yet, your kids probably have. And if they haven't, they're about to. This Australian DJ has created something completely unexpected: electronic dance music made for children. He calls it "toddler techno," and it's taking the family entertainment world by storm.
Lenny Pearce isn't new to the music scene. Fifteen years ago, he was part of a 10-person breakdancing crew called Justice Crew that won Australia's Got Talent in 2010. The group later transformed into a boy band with a number-one hit on the Australian ARIA Singles chart. Pearce DJ'd as part of Justice Crew shows and fell in love with production, eventually leaving the group to focus on his solo career.
But his path to becoming a children's entertainer wasn't a straight line. For a while, his career was "going nowhere," as he puts it. He kept producing house and tech house music, uploading tracks to streaming platforms, and trying to get the attention of labels. Then everything changed.
In 2023, Pearce's first child, a daughter, was born. Like any new parent, he suddenly found himself surrounded by children's music on heavy rotation. But Pearce saw an opportunity where most parents just hear the same nursery rhymes on repeat.
"She liked 'The Wheels on the Bus' and all that," Pearce told Billboard. "With my creative mind, I was thinking that I could remix these songs and put them on TikTok."
So he did. Working from his home studio between bottles and naps, Pearce created a techno version of "Head, Shoulders, Knees & Toes." It quickly racked up 500,000 views. His TikTok follower count grew from 30,000 to over a million. (He now has 2.3 million+ followers.)
What started as a fun experiment for his daughter became a global movement. Pearce had created a whole new genre: toddler techno. Today, he hosts sold-out "baby rave" events around the world, welcoming between 700 and 1,500 children and parents at each show.
Yippee is a streaming platform for Christian kids, a safe, ad-free space where families can watch content that aligns with their values. Every show on Yippee is vetted by both Christian parents and our network pastor, so you can trust that what your children are watching is appropriate for your family.
Lenny Pearce's music fits right in. While his songs aren't faith-based, they carry messages that resonate with Christian families: joy, movement, togetherness, and celebrating life. His videos promote physical activity, positive self-expression, and family connection, all without the questionable themes that sometimes creep into kids' entertainment.
Pearce puts it simply: "If I can enjoy something with my daughter, it's as simple a connection as that. With toddlers, they like music and things that they're familiar with. And if you're having fun, they have fun too."
That's the kind of family-first philosophy Yippee stands behind.
Lenny Pearce has a growing library of high-energy, techno-inspired songs that get kids moving, laughing, and learning. Here's a closer look at the tracks available on Yippee.

Lenny Pearce's songs are entertaining, fun, and can also help with your child’s development. Research and experience show that movement-based activities help children:
What makes Pearce's approach unique is that it doesn't talk down to kids. It invites them into a world of rhythm, energy, and self-expression. "I'm never a hater on anything, but I felt some of the kids' music was boring," Pearce said in an interview. His solution? Make kids' music that parents actually want to listen to, too.
As Pearce told the New York Post: "Millennial parents like to be present with our children. We want to spend more time with our kids. We want to be the best parents we can be and guide them down the right path. This is an event that parents can take their kids and enjoy as a whole, instead of just taking their kids and then just being bored."
Pearce's success has been nothing short of extraordinary. He's hosted events in Australia, Bahrain, Singapore, and the United States. Most of his shows sell out within minutes.
In 2024, he signed with Spinnin' Records, a label he'd been trying to get the attention of for years. His remix of "Wheels on the Bus" now has 2.3 million views on YouTube.
But the biggest milestone came in 2026. Pearce signed a music and content development deal with Disney. His album Disney Jr. Music: Lenny Pearce Toddler Techno features remixes of classic Disney Jr. songs. He's also developing original animated content for Disney+.
"My daughter absolutely loves these tracks and the shows," Pearce shares. "Working with Disney is honestly a dream come true."
Here's some exciting news for families who want to experience the magic live. Lenny Pearce is bringing his Toddler Rave World Tour to North America with a massive 42-date run. The tour kicks off September 25, 2026, in Baltimore and spans the U.S. and Canada through late November.
His shows are built for movement from the start: bass drops, glow sticks, face paint, props, dancing toddlers, and plenty of crowd interaction. It's more like a daytime rave than a traditional children's concert, and families absolutely love it.
