With the philosophy of ‘play-to-learn’, it aims to stimulate, educate, involve, excite and develop enquiring minds to engage and encourage early childhood development.
Among the programmes it broadcasts are Dora the Explorer; Go, Diego, Go!; Little Bill; Ni Hao, Kai-Lan and Blue’s Clues. Nick Jr. is the first children’s channel to debut on 1-Sky’s broadcasting platform and will be available 24 hours a day to 1-Sky’s Entertainment package and Combo package subscribers.
