The popular children’s show “Sisimpur” has launched an exciting new initiative for young learners. This time, the programme has introduced a special series featuring 40 of the most well-known and cherished Bangla nursery rhymes. The rhymes are performed by the show’s adored characters—Halum, Tuktuki, Ikri, and Shiku—making the experience both fun and engaging for kids.
The program, designed to promote learning among children at the pre-primary and primary levels in the areas of literacy, numeracy, health, nutrition, safety, environment, gender equity, social responsibility, mutual respect, and diversity, began its journey in 2005 with support from the American people through USAID.
To foster a safer online environment for children, the Bangladesh Telecommunication Regulatory Commission (BTRC) has teamed up with Sesame Workshop Bangladesh (SWB), the creators of the beloved children's educational show “Sisimpur”. The collaboration aims to raise awareness about the safe use of the internet for educational purposes and to promote internet safety among children and parents alike.
The much-anticipated programme will introduce a new character, Ameera, who is a witty inquisitive 8-year-old girl with a passion for science and basketball. Ameera is also a person with a disability and will use a pair of crutches and a wheelchair whenever she is interacting with the group. She is everyone’s favourite comedian, and her great sense of humour serves her well as a natural leader who encourages others with her bright personality.
