The show Little Einsteins can be arguably among those shows that can be classified under “childhood nostalgia.” Who could forget waking up in the morning and turning on the TV to their wonderful melodious theme song? Their episodes are uniquely great as well! They taught us how to appreciate art like musical pieces and paintings – something not guaranteed to be taught in schools.
Today, we’ll wake up that sleeping nostalgia in you as we rewind to the times Little Einsteins was still on-air. We’ll get to know each major character in the show again below, and perhaps, we’ll also learn something new that we might not have noticed during our limited viewing back then!

1. Rocket
Let’s start with the biggest of the five main characters. Despite having no obvious gender indicators, Rocket is thought to be a male, so masculine pronouns will be used to refer to him from this point forward.
Rocket is a futuristic ship that the Little Einsteins used to navigate. He is their main mode of transportation. He appeared made of red material with a red antenna on the top front. He had a pair of thrusters on his back with a fin-shaped protrusion on top of each one.
Unlike most rockets and spaceships of this day, he is powered by musical elements, and he is revved up by tapping to the beat of the music in the play. He also has several abilities, such as transforming into other vehicles like a boat or a submarine. Moreover, he can spawn tools out of this bottom compartment. Such tools are useful in situations the Little Einsteins encounter.
2. Leo
Leonardo, or Leo for short, is the de facto leader of the Little Einsteins gang. He has green eyes and green rounded eyeglasses. He has orange spiky hair as well. His most common attire is a black shirt with an orange stripe on it. His shoes are colored black and orange as well. He is Annie’s older brother
Leo is usually seen with a baton, a special item his father had for him. He very much served as the conductor of this musical show. He often conducted to control objects and made the animals move out of harm’s way. Inside Rocket, he is often seated in the pilot’s seat.
3. Annie
Annie is a fair-skinned girl with yellow hair pigtailed with pink ribbons. Her dress for both seasons always featured a single pocket, though this dress had different colors. In the first season, it was blue, while in the second season, it was pink. He is Leo’s younger sister.
Her musical capability lies in her singing prowess. She was always the singer in the group and would often sing to animals and befriend them. She was also the youngest in the group, a fact that she did not like as she would often be seen as small. Annie also had a very childish, bubbly, and happy-go-lucky character.

4. Quincy
Quincy is a boy of African-American descent. He appeared as a boy with brown skin and curly hair. His usual attire involved a blue and red cap, a yellow shirt with green sleeves, denim pants, and brown shoes with white bottoms. He fared well with Leo – he, being the instrument player, and Leo, being the conductor.
His musical power is his expertise in playing several musical instruments. Throughout the series, he was seen playing instruments such as drums, lyre, piano, organ, flute, trumpet, trombone, violin, cello, and many more. He was also very friendly. His friends did not involve just humans, but he had befriended several animals as well, such as pterodactyls and a woodpecker, a car, some instruments, and a bassoon.
5. June
June is Chinese-American. Her usual attire was a purple tutu dress, round blue earrings, a pink headband, and ballet slippers. Physically, she appeared with short hair, brown oval eyes, and whitish skin.
June’s ability is dancing, which complements Annie’s singing. She appeared to be ready to dance, specifically with ballet. She would help the team through her dancing skills and extensive vocabulary. She is also a good comforter for Leo.
