Download NHK KIDS APK free

Users can watch various children’s programs produced by NHK including those made for children in kindergarten, nursery school and elementary school.

One of the key features of this app is the video series that showcases play ideas. We focus on the element of play because it is said to be critical in developing non-cognitive skills* in children, especially in the early stages of childhood. Non-cognitive skills are receiving much attention from the educational sector in recent years.

This app can be used in settings such as kindergartens, nursery schools, and homes, and the "play" video series is designed in a way that the children would want to try the games themselves.

*Non-cognitive skills encompass various abilities such as perseverance, communication and controlling emotions.

Features:
