Play to learn with Nick

MANILA, Philippines - Nickelodeon, in partnership with Wyeth Progress Pre-school Gold, recently launched Nick Jr.’s “Play To Learn” school tour a program dedicated to promoting fun in learning, team spirit and physical challenge among preschool students aged three to five. In this school invasion, students from select pre-schools enjoyed two hours of edu-tainment. And among those who have already played and learned the Nick Jr. way are pre-school students from Colegio Sta. Rosa (July 23) and Southville International School (July 26).   Also set to join the play adventure are students from Makati Hope Christian School (Aug. 24) and San Beda College Alabang (September).  

To kick off the play adventure, students were treated to a special screening of Team Umizoomi, Nickelodeon’s newest preschool 2-D and 3-D animated series about mini action heroes who help little kids solve big problems with their mighty math powers. Then, those ready for action can play thrilling games patterned after popular Nick Jr. programs like The Backyardigans, Ni Hao, Kai-Lan, Team Umizoomi and Yo Gabba Gabba. Some games enhanced their math skills some challenged the sharpness of their memory, but if there is one thing that all the games have in common, it is that they all teach the students about team spirit and fun in play.
