Ni Hao Kai-lan Airs This Week



Move over Dora and make room for a new star, Kai-lan. Nick Jr. will introduce this spunky five-year-old this week in her very own show, "Ni Hao Kai-lan" where kids can learn about Chinese culture and Mandarin Chinese words and phrases. The show focuses on helping preschoolers identify emotions and learn positive coping mechanisms. The first episode of Ni Hao Kai-lan, "Dragon Boat Festival," will debut on Nick Jr. this Thursday, Feb. 7 at 11:00 a.m. (ET/PT). In this colorfully animated story, Kai-lan's tiger friend, Rintoo, learns that "When you feel too mad, the first thing you do is calm, calm down!" We are very excited to see the premiere of this promising new show. Tune in and let us know what you think!

Thanks for the details. I have been awaiting this. JAne and I do everything by just CD, and a library Mandarin class, this will be fabulous!
