Franklin's family includes his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Turtle and his little sister Harriet. Mr. and Mrs. Turtle are presented as gentle and loving parents who provide direction and guidance for Franklin, as well as reasonable discipline when needed. His sister, Harriet, was born in the film ''Franklin and the Green Knight'' and was featured in stories in the fifth and sixth season of the programme. Franklin's extended family includes his paternal grandmother, who lives close by, as well as his maternal grandparents, who live on a remote farm (As shown in "Franklin's Magic Christmas").
 
In the film ''Franklin and the Turtle Lake Treasure'', his paternal auntAunt Lucy and her goddaughter Sam chose to settle in Woodland as well. Sam has a mom and a dad but they let her stay in Woodland so she could visit her Godmother, Lucy. And in the new CGI series, his paternal Aunt Teeny (Aunt T or Aunt Turtle) is introduced. In later episodes, Franklin's maternal aunt and uncle and his maternal cousin will be introduced.
 
Franklin's parents are the only couple in Woodland to be of different ages. Most of the married couples in Woodland have the two people the same age. And there are most couples in Woodland have married twin siblings.

''Franklin'' television stories are mostly based on books in the original Franklin Adventure series. The practice of adapting television stories from books was dropped in the programme's second season, though elements and dialogue from some of the books are incorporated into later stories. Although, many Franklin television stories have been made into books in the Franklin TV Storybook and Franklin First Readers series. Usually written by Sharon Jennings, these adaptations are shortened versions of what is seen on TV and may contain non-canon material.
 
In October, 2000, Franklin's little sister Harriet was introduced in the direct-to-video and DVD movie ''[[Franklin and the Green Knight]]''. The two shared an adventure in 2001 in ''[[Franklin's Magic Christmas]]". [[Back to School with Franklin]]'' was released direct-to-video in 2003, which involved Harriet befriending Beaver's younger brother Kit, and new character Mrs. Koala introduced as a teacher to Franklin and his friends.
