Noggin, Nickelodeon’s interactive learning service for preschoolers, has launched its brand-new initiative “Big Heart World,” a multiplatform campaign rolling out throughout the year which aims to promote children’s healthy social and emotional development. Available now, Noggin’s “Big Heart World” includes an array of content and resources featuring Nickelodeon’s fan-favorite preschool characters, as well as all-new animated characters, designed to help kids build confidence, develop an appreciation for others, navigate relationships and contribute to a kinder world.
“Social and emotional learning helps children understand themselves, relate to others and stand up for what’s right,” said Kristen Kane, Executive Vice President, Noggin. “It has always been a meaningful part of early childhood development, but after a year of isolation and stress, it’s an especially pressing priority for families. The ‘Big Heart World’ initiative presents new, engaging learning experiences from Noggin and a helpful multimedia destination for every family.”
Noggin’s “Big Heart World” initiative focuses on three key learning areas: awareness of self — identity, belonging, feelings and self-regulation; awareness of others — empathy and appreciation of diversity; and relationships with others — interpersonal strategies. As part of the campaign, Noggin will highlight a different focus each month with new content that includes:
- Original songs and music videos from the brand-new Big Heart Beats album, a collection of 10 catchy and empowering songs to help educate preschoolers through music. The first song and music video, “Like Nobody Else,” focuses on identity and is available now. Following their debut on Noggin, the music videos will air on the Nick Jr. channel and be available on the Nick Jr. YouTube channel.
- New short-form videos and interactive games.
- Parent, caregiver and educator resources.
- Family activity guides.
Timed to the launch of each month’s theme, songs from Big Heart Beats will be available on multiple digital platforms, including Apple Music, Spotify, iTunes, YouTube, Tidal, Amazon Music, Pandora and more.
“Big Heart World” content is also available at BigHeartWorld.org, developed by nonprofit organization Sparkler Learning, with the generous support of the Walton Family Foundation. Noggin has partnered with Sparkler Learning to provide additional educational materials to early learning organizations, educators, parents and caregivers.
In Noggin, learning is led by the Nickelodeon preschool characters kids know and love, and developed by education and child development experts. The interactive service offers an ever-expanding library of books, learning games, activities, exclusive shorts and 1,000+ ad-free episodes of preschool favorites like PAW Patrol, Peppa Pig and Blue’s Clues & You!
