Nickelodeon characters to meet fans in December

Nickelodeon Arabia's characters, Dora the explorer, SpongeBob SquarePants & Patrick Starfish, will be present at the The Mother Baby and Child Show, held from December 18 until December 20 at the Dubai International Exhibition Centre (DIEC).

Leila Almaeena, Channel Manager of Nickelodeon, said: "Nickelodeon characters have been stimulating and entertaining children all over the world for many years and now children in the Middle East have their very own SpongeBob and Dora on a dedicated Nickelodeon channel that speaks to them in their mother tongue – Arabic.

"SpongeBob, Patrick and Dora will make this year's Mother, Baby and Child Show the place to be," said the channel manager.

The glittering event will showcase the latest products for babies from nappies to strollers, healthcare to toddlers' fashions.

"This year we have packed in as many activities as possible for both children and parents, with 25,000 visitors expected over three days," said Shannon Norris, Events Director for TME.
