Plot
The series is set in a world similar to that of the Night at the Museum franchise, with key elements shared between the two.
The series takes place in a museum where the exhibits and displays come to life via magic. The Jones family, who live inside a treehouse at the center of the building, have been protectors of the museum's secrets for generations, and the latest candidate for the position is Ridley, who only recently learned about the exhibits coming to life. As she continues to earn her role, she gathers a team of other museum display models to help contain the chaos and care for those who need it, all while making sure that everyone is safe and happy – without the outside world learning about the museum's secrets.
Voice cast
Main
Iara Nemirovsky as Ridley Jones,[10] a young girl who trains and eventually becomes the museum's protector with a team consisting of herself and other museum exhibits.
Tyler Shamy as Dante,[12] a parasaurolophus display model in a blue knit cap and a member of Ridley's team. Dante speaks in skater lingo and typically carries and rides a skateboard.
Ashlyn Madden as Ismat,[12] a young mummy and a member of Ridley's team. She holds the distinction of being the only group member other than Ridley to have relatives revealed onscreen, those being 2 fathers.
David Errigo Jr. as Dudley, a dodo bird display model and a member of Ridley's team. According to an interview, Errigo based the voice for Dudley on legendary actor and comedian Ed Wynn, albeit without Wynn's trademark lisp.
Laraine Newman as Peaches, a replica model of Ham, the astrochimp who was the first great ape in space. She serves as tech support for Ridley's team.
Bergen also voices Mr. Filbert Peabody, the greedy museum curator who cares only about profiting from the museum exhibits and feeling the need to interfere in the business of others. As a result, while the Jones family respect him, they rarely tolerate his behavior and actions.
Sydney Mikatlyla as Penelope "Penny" Peabody, Filbert's niece.
Minor
Sander Argabrite as Pedro, a young penguin display model who idolizes Ridley. He is often seen getting into trouble.
Jane Lynch as Lonny, the museum's well-meaning but clumsy security guard. In Season 5 she now knows about the Jones family's secret.

Dave Boat as Nukilik "Nuki", a Woolly Mammoth display model and Sylvia's best friend during her youth. Nukilik was frozen in the arctic exhibit several years before he was rediscovered by Ridley, at which point he reunited with Sylvia.
