This year, Duo Tiempo de Sol celebrates three decades of uninterrupted success, bringing joy, songs, and play to millions of children around the world. They do so alongside El Reino Infantil, the most-watched Spanish-language YouTube channel, with whom they have built a creative alliance that has set a new standard in children’s music.
Over the past 30 years, the duo, formed by Cecilia María Teresa Rogier and Eduardo Alberto Marcellac—better known as Ceci and Chacho—has won the hearts of children and adults alike by combining pedagogy, fun, and positive values in every song. Hits such as “Bartolito,” “El Auto Bochinchero,” “Soy una Serpiente,” “La Gallina Turuleca,” “Juan Paco Pedro de la Mar,” and “El Baile de los Animales” have become staples of the children’s repertoire across Latin America and Spain. For more than a decade, they have worked closely with Roberto “Kuky” Pumar, founder of Leader Music and El Reino Infantil, a key figure in the duo’s digital success, helping drive some of the channel’s most popular hits.
Their enduring relevance is reflected in powerful numbers. El Reino Infantil has more than 222 million YouTube subscribers, with many of its videos surpassing one billion views. In 2021, Tiempo de Sol was awarded YouTube’s Diamond Play Button, an honor reserved for channels with over 10 million subscribers, a figure that has since grown to 14.6 million.
As part of their 30-year anniversary celebration, the duo has begun releasing new versions of their greatest hits alongside other well-known children’s performers. The project kicked off with “Soy una Serpiente,” an iconic children’s anthem that brought together leading artists including Luli Pampín, Topa, Chikitoonz, Soy Lila Luna, PatyLu, Pica Pica, and Soy Solcito. Within just one month of its release, the video had already reached more than 10 million views. In addition, their recent collaboration with Luli Pampín on “El Baile de los Animales” has already surpassed 2 million views, proving that enthusiasm for the duo’s music remains stronger than ever.
Throughout these three decades, Tiempo de Sol has shown a remarkable ability to evolve, adapting to new digital platforms while staying true to their essence. Their commitment to childhood, their passion for music, and their creative synergy with “Kuky” Pumar and El Reino Infantil have been the cornerstones of a legacy that continues to grow.
El Reino Infantil, with more than 222 million subscribers in 11 languages, has become the most influential children’s content network worldwide. Beyond its massive YouTube presence, it develops pioneering digital experiences, live shows, merchandising, and original productions such as “La Granja de Zenón,” “Bichikids,” “Canciones del Zoo,” “La Familia Blu,” and “Paco el Marinero.”
With 30 years of history and millions of fans around the globe, Dúo Tiempo de Sol reaffirms its role as a leading name in Spanish-language children’s music, continually renewing its creative vision and collaborating with new artists to ensure the legacy endures across generations.
