LeapFrog Enterprises and HIT Entertainment have partnered to distribute downloadable content through LeapFrog’s digital App Center beginning with content from the Thomas & Friends and Fireman Sam series.

“We are very excited to expand our digital learning library with a brand like HIT that shares a similar promise to entertain kids while they learn some of life’s most important lessons,” says Jill Waller, vice president of LeapFrog. “By offering content starring kid-favorite characters like Thomas and Fireman Sam, parents can be assured that their kids are learning while having fun.”

The first six apps will include three Thomas & Friends videos and three Fireman Sam videos for kids, ages 3-6.

“HIT is dedicated to provided kids with trusted, entertaining content and we are thrilled to offer fans of Thomas & Friends and Fireman Sam on these two popular children’s platforms,” says Natasha Fishman, senior vice president, global brand management and digital media, HIT Entertainment. “HIT and LeapFrog have collaborated for many years and we are delighted to expand our partnership into the digital space.”
