Wimzie's House is a Canadian preschool puppet series that ran for 65 episodes from 1995-1996 on YTV, and ran in the USA on select PBS stations from 1997-2001.

The show was about a five-year-old dragon bird girl named Wimzie whose parents worked all day, so her grandma Yaya ran a daycare center. The charges of the daycare are Wimzie, her 18 month old brother Bo, a 5 year old Goblin named Jonas who loves science, his 3-year-old sister Loulou who loves to be with the bigger kids, and a four year old troll named Horace who isn't very bright.

In each episode, Wimzie and friends learn lessons and flip over to semi-related songs out of the blue twice an episode.

In 1999, The Jim Henson Company issued a lawsuit against the company due to the puppets looking a little too much like official Muppets.
