Shalvit Kids TV Magazine — Issue 41: People of Nigeria

HELLO IN A HUNDRED WAYS — the languages-and-peoples issue Nigeria has been waiting for!

Issue 41 of Shalvit Kids TV Magazine is a giant 135-page celebration of Nigeria's peoples, languages, cloths and dances. Kiki, Bibo, Lulu and Pip visit a brand-new cloth-and-drum market and collect one new word at every stall — every greeting taken exactly from the locked greeting table of Book 102, "Kiki Says Hello in Many Languages," underdots and all.

INSIDE THIS ISSUE:

• Hero Story — Hello in a Hundred Ways: a new market-day adventure (different stalls, different day) — Grandma's Yoruba, Uncle Musa's Hausa, Aunty Adaeze's Igbo and the school friends' English, ending with a basket of exactly twelve greeting treasures.

• Story Two — Aunty Grace's Three Weddings Album: the neighbour from Book 72 opens one album with three family weddings, three cloths and three dances — every family celebrates in its own beautiful way.

• Bible Story Time — Pentecost (Acts 2): wind like a rushing breath and gentle flames of golden light only — and every visitor hears the good news in their OWN language. Languages are a gift!

• Feelings Corner — Proud of My Language: feeling proud of your own language — and curious about your friend's.

• Learning Lab — Languages of Nigeria: over 500 languages live in Nigeria (the true figure); the big three in pictures — Yoruba, Hausa, Igbo — greeting practice, tracing, sorting, my name in my language, and Kiki Asks Why? "Why doesn't everyone speak the same language?"

• Count & Find — The Greeting Market: count exactly 8 speech-bubble greetings and 5 drums — every count drawn, checked in code, and answered at the back!

• Puzzle Pages: two solver-checked mazes, spot-the-difference, teacher matching, patterns, dot-to-dot, greeting pairs and the Big Quiz — with a FULL answer key.

• Make It — Hello Banner: one greeting per flag, copied exactly from the poster (grown-ups do the cutting).

• Yummy Corner — Three-Peoples Tasting Plate: all COLD — moin-moin served cool by a grown-up, groundnuts and coconut — with handwashing first, the allergy-kindness rule, and "no thank you" always allowed.

• Our Nigeria — The Cloths of Many Peoples: aso-oke, akwaete, George wrappers and more — every people's cloth tells who they are.

• SPECIAL — Say-Hello Poster (page 131): all twelve locked greetings, big and colourful, in the Book 102 order — ready to practise one a day!

• Parent Pages: what your child learned, how to explore the issue together, the humility note (greetings vary by dialect and family — add your own language), and the complete answer key.

Skills learned: language appreciation and respect • greeting vocabulary in four languages • counting and matching • fine-motor tracing, colouring and crafting • Bible knowledge • pride in identity and curiosity about others.

From the makers of the Shalvit Kids TV storybooks and songs — 135 pages of stories, songs and smiles for little learners, ages 2–6, made for reading aloud together.
