Disney was the biggest winner at this weekend’s Children & Family Emmy Awards, taking home a total of 23 awards, including 10 for content on Disney+ and Disney Channel. 

The National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences’ (NATAS) kids awards ceremony was split up over two nights in LA, with a focus on creative arts/technical achievement on December 16, and programming and talent on December 17. 

Puppet-led content did very well in the programming category this year, with The Muppets Mayhem (The Muppets Studio, ABC Signature and Disney Branded Television for Disney+) winning Outstanding Children’s or Family Viewing Series, and Sesame Street (Sesame Workshop for HBO Max) taking home the Outstanding Preschool Series trophy. Ryan Dillon, the talented puppeteer behind Sesame Street‘s Elmo, was also recognized with a dedicated Outstanding Puppetry Performance award. 

Brown Bag Films’ StoryBots: Answer Time (Netflix) came out on top in the Outstanding Preschool Animated Series category, and short-form miniseries Zootopia+ (Disney Television Animation/Walt Disney Animation Studio for Disney+) was the triumphant Outstanding Children’s or Young Teen Animated Series for 2023. 

Disney also dominated the creative arts category, winning 13 of these awards, including Outstanding Writing for an Animated Children’s or Young Teen Program (Baymax!, Cirocco Dunlap) and Outstanding Voice Directing for an Animated Series (Marvel’s Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur, Sam Riegel). 

Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur (pictured) collected an impressive six awards in both categories, the most of any series. Among its other wins were Outstanding Animated Special (for the “Moon Girl Landing” special) and Outstanding Main Title. 

Netflix animated miniseries Lost Ollie (Fufufufu Productions, 21 Laps Entertainment, Industrial Light & Magic) won five creative arts Emmys, including Outstanding Directing for a Single Camera Program.
