Overview

These series focus on core values established more than 30 years ago by Sanrio such as: happiness, family values, friendship, and educational values.

  • Unlike the previous animated series, which were short and cute episodes, this is an educational television series that targets both younger viewers and their parents.
  • The animation works together with real actors in teaching children from age two to six about words, simple math, shapes, colors and foreign languages like Chinese & Japanese.
  • The series offers an entertaining way for younger viewers to learn about social interaction and behavior while following the adventures of Hello Kitty.
  • Hello Kitty establishes a new image, giving younger viewers more things to learn from, rather than just being sweet and cute.
