This document outlines plans for developing an interactive mobile app called "Magic" for kids ages 2-6 to watch and engage with Nick Jr. shows and characters. It discusses research finding that kids desire interactivity beyond passive video watching. The proposed app would include interactive elements, games, exploration, and hidden content to position kids as heroes and give them power over the experience. Details are provided on user profiles, authentication, monetization through sponsorship rather than ads, and marketing strategies to launch the new app.
4. Bring the Smart Place to Play to life through an
innovative, immersive and accessible experience that
invites kids 2 to 6 into the world of their favorite Nick Jr
characters and shows.
Magical experience around our full episodes and the
devices theyre on.

5. MAGIC is something that doesnt happen
in the natural world. It puts the emphasis
on the childs power rather than the
phones power.

Create an innovative and immersive
experience that goes above and
beyond streaming video and sets
Nick Jr. apart from the competition.
In the absence of a true leader in kids video
apps, parents direct their kids to apps they
are most familiar with - Netflix and YouTube.

The multitude of interactive elements
in gaming apps naturally supports kids
desire to interact in a more free-form
manner.

exploratory experience for kids
that goes beyond the traditional
video-player.
