Nick and Space Kidz India take kids on an exciting space odyssey with Abhimanyu!
Nick is on a mission to make learning an out-of-this-world adventure! In an exciting partnership with Space Kidz India in Chennai, the kids of the city were in for an exciting ride as Alien Abhimanyu from Nickelodeon’s 12th homegrown IP – Abhimanyu Ki Alien Family – made a grand visit to Chennai to say hello to the earthlings and this time, give them a glimpse into his extraordinary world.
Joined by enthusiastic kids of the Hope Foundation, Abhimanyu and his new friends dove into the wonders of space, stars, galaxies, satellites and space research almost immediately!
In an age where technology and space exploration captivate the imagination of young minds, it is crucial to nurture their curiosity and inspire them to dream big. This partnership underscores their commitment to fostering a love for learning and exploration in children, inspiring the next generation of astronauts, engineers, and innovators. By bringing Abhimanyu to Space Kidz India, the aim was to ignite a passion for discovery and demonstrate that the sky is not the limit, but just the beginning.
Sonali Bhattacharya, Head of Marketing, Kids TV Network, Viacom18, states “We at Nickelodeon believe in the power of imagination and the importance of inspiring young minds. Our collaboration with Space Kidz India is a testament to our commitment to making learning a fun and engaging experience. By getting Abhimanyu from ‘Abhimanyu Ki Alien Family’ to interact with the children at Space Kidz India, we hope to ignite their curiosity about space and science, encouraging them to dream big and explore the endless possibilities that lie beyond our planet. This initiative not only entertains but also educates, which underscores Nickelodeon’s commitment to promote learning and education through thoughtfully crafted activities.”
Dr. Srimathy Kesan, Founder and CEO, Space Kidz India said, “Here at Space Kidz India, our aim is to inspire and engage children in the wonders of space science and technology. We are thrilled to collaborate with Nick, the pioneers in their space, where we aim to further ignite curiosity and encourage the next generation to reach for the stars. By combining entertainment with education, we hope to make learning about space accessible and exciting for children everywhere. Nick’s Abhimanyu is a prodigy in himself, it was a great experience having him at the center, taking kids through his world. At Space Kidz India with 26 Space Missions to our belt, we’re always looking to induct as many kids into the greatness of the world of space and the workshop with Abhimanyu only allowed us to widen our reach”
During the visit, the students of Hope Foundation had the unique opportunity to interact with scientists, engineers, and researchers at Space Kidz India. Led by Mr Keerthan Chand – Lead Software engineer and Ms Haashika Raj – Academic Program Coordinator, and of course, their favourite Abhimanyu, the kids learnt about the various stages of satellite development, the intricacies of space missions, and the innovative technologies that make it all possible. The kids were blown away by the technology and asked questions ranging from – ‘why is space exploration necessary?’ to ‘can we go to space?’ This hands-on experience only gave them a chance to ignite a passion for science and technology, encouraging kids to dream big and pursue careers in these exciting fields.
So don’t miss out on this space adventure and tune in to Nickelodeon to catch the new episodes of Abhimanyu Ki Alien Family and join Abhimanyu on his thrilling adventures as he explores the cosmos and beyond.
