Percy Jackson and the Olympians, The Velveteen Rabbit, Orion and the Dark and projects from the Sesame Street universe were among the big winners at the 2025 Children’s and Family Emmy Awards on Saturday.

Percy Jackson, The Velveteen Rabbit, Orion and the Dark and the Sesame Street universe projects each took home two awards in the main ceremony. (More winners will be revealed in a separate creative arts ceremony later tonight.)

Percy Jackson won best young teen series and directing for a single-camera live-action series “I Accidentally Vaporize My Pre-Algebra Teacher” in a tie with “The Big City” episode of A Real Bug’s Life.

The Velveteen Rabbit meanwhile won for best fiction special and younger performer in a preschool, children’s or young teen program for Phoenix Laroche, making Laroche one of the youngest Emmy winners.

Orion and the Dark secured best animated special and younger voice performer in a preschool, children’s or young teen program for Orion voice actor Jacob Tremblay.

Sesame Workshop’s Elmo and Jesse Remember Uncle Jack won best short form live-action program while Sesame Street‘s Leslie Carrara-Rudolph won her first Emmy for outstanding puppetry performer after seven nominations.

Other notable winners include Blue’s Clues & You (best preschool series), Fraggle Rock: Back to the Rock (children’s or family viewing series), Stand Up & Shout: Songs From a Philly High School (best non-fiction program), Christian Slater for his work as Mulgarath in The Spiderwick Chronicles (lead performer in a preschool, children’s or young teen program) and Meryl Streep (best children’s personality).

In addition to the competitive categories, The Muppets‘ Dave Goelz was honored with a lifetime achievement award.

The third annual ceremony, hosted by Looney Tunes voice actor Eric Bauza, who also won an award Saturday, took place from Television City in Los Angeles and was streamed live on the National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences’ Emmys’ website and the Emmys’ apps.

“The producers and craftspeople recognized during the two ceremonies today are serving television’s youngest viewers and their families in creative and important ways. It is an honor to celebrate their exceptional work and achievements,” NATAS president Adam Sharp said in a statement. “We are proud to use the Children’s & Family Emmy Awards platform to celebrate them today and everyday.” 

Read on for this year’s winners. A number of categories will be presented in a separate creative arts ceremony this evening and those winners will be noted after that event concludes.
