Main characters

 * Pinkalicious Pinkerton (voiced by Kayla Erickson in seasons 1-3; Shazdeh Kapadia in season 4-6): Pinkalicious is an imaginative young girl who likes pink (more than any other color) in addition to soccer, painting, tinkering and using her creativity.
 * Peter Pinkerton (voiced by Jaden Waldman in seasons 1-3; Logan Nicholson in season 4-6): Peter is Pinkalicious' younger brother. He likes riding his scooter, playing with blocks and tagging along on Pinkalicious' adventures. He has some angst over being the youngest, as evidenced in "No Honking" in his song, "Music to Me".
