Little Airplane Productions was an American production studio that collaborated with Nickelodeon on a variety of projects. Co-founded by Josh Selig and Lori Shaer, the studio was based in New York and operated from 1999 until June 2023. It created both live-action and animated projects.
The studio's first series was Oobi, produced for Nickelodeon's sister network Noggin. Little Airplane later created and animated Piper O'Possum, who acted as the on-air mascot of the Nick Jr. block from 2004 to 2007. The studio also created Wonder Pets!, which aired on Nickelodeon and was later moved to the separate Nick Jr. Channel.

The spin-off was never made.[5]
