The show will premier on Nick Jr. on February 7th, 2008 at 11am. I hear that you can get a sneek peek if you have Comcast on Demand. I am personally hoping and waiting that we will have some Kai-lan dolls and accessories available in the stores soon. It is very hard to find Chinese/Asian dolls in a regular store.
Ni Hao, Kai-lan is a play-along, think-along series that weaves together Chinese language and culture, preschool-relatable stories, and interactivity, with Kai-lan as your intimate friend and playmate!
Ni Hao, Kai-lan is the next generation of preschool television programmingthat introduces the psychology of biculturalism. If Dora and Diegopopularized bilingualism, Kai-lan will weave together being bilingual and bicultural. Ni Hao, Kai-lan reinforces the idea that being bicultural and bilingual is being American.The show will familiarize the viewing audience with elements of Chinese andChinese American cultures to promote multicultural understanding in the nextgeneration and goes beyond featuring "culture" as only ethnic food and festivals. Instead, it celebrates growing up in an intergenerational family, having friends from diverse backgrounds, and "habits of the heart" that are Chinese American.
Being a good member of the group Ni Hao, Kai-lan also emphasizes the Chineseand Chinese American value of being a good member of a group.Social & Emotional Goals Highlight cause-and-effect thinking about social and emotional issues to preschoolers and to support preschooler' s social and emotional development.
