Paddle Pop Adventures is a Thai animated television series that saw its first release in 2005. Based on the mascot of the Australian ice cream brand Paddle Pop, the Paddle Pop Lion, the series was produced by The Monk Studios and Egg Story Studios (in 2013-2014) and is owned by the British-Dutch company Unilever. It was originally released as a film to promote the brand worldwide, but eventually became a series.

It was launched in more than 33 countries including Indonesia, Spain, France, India, Italy, Portugal and Brazil. In Australia, the series was called Paddle Pop Adventures, where each season was condensed into a single movie.

Voiced by Ittiporn Lakarnsure (English); Giring Ganesha (Indonesian); Ankur Javeri (Hindi; commercials).
