Meet Milo & Mila: The Best Friends Who Ask Why
By The Milo & Mila Team
"Milo and Mila don't have all the answers. That's the whole point."
When we started sketching Milo & Mila's Adventures, we knew one thing for certain: our heroes would not be the characters with all the answers. They would be the ones brave enough to ask the questions.
Milo and Mila are curious best friends with very big imaginations. They carry a box of magical crayons everywhere they go — not because the crayons solve their problems, but because each one helps them explore a question a little further. Blue for wondering. Yellow for imagining. Green for growing.
We spent months getting their personalities right. Early versions of the pair were too clever, too quick with a comeback. The Milo and Mila you'll meet on screen are softer. They pause. They wonder out loud. They say 'I don't know — let's find out together!' more than any other line in the show.
Their running joke arrived by accident during a storyboarding session: Milo can never find his crayons, and Mila always finishes his sentence before he can ask where they went. Our test audiences of four-year-olds found this funnier than we ever expected. It stayed.
We can't wait for you to meet them properly. Until then, you can download their coloring pages and start your own adventure with a box of crayons — magical or otherwise.
