Characters

Meet Hugo and his nine friends.

Each friend lives in their own corner of EmOcean and carries one big feeling — fear, joy, sadness, anger and more. Your child gets to know them as friends first: what they love, what makes them laugh, what they find hard. Every friend was designed by illustrator Tomek Cygan.
