Nina Needs to Go! facts for kids
Nina Needs to Go! is a fun animated TV show. It aired on Disney Junior starting in early 2014. Each episode is about three minutes long. The show is made for young kids, but it's also funny for families. It was produced by ArthurCox, an animation studio in Bristol.
About the Show
The main character is a 4-year-old girl named Nina. In each episode, Nina is having a great time playing. She might be at the zoo or the beach. But then, she suddenly realizes she really needs to go to the bathroom! The show is all about her exciting race to find a bathroom before it's too late.
This idea came from real life! Sarah Cox, who is in charge of ArthurCox, said the show is based on her own experiences with her daughter. She mentioned funny car trips and searching for bathrooms in famous places. A great team helped make these 'race against time' stories. They wanted to make families laugh and have fun watching.
