NEW YORK, Nov. 8, 2012 /Nickelodeon Press Release via PRNewswire/ -- Within 48 hours of being live, Nickelodeon's newest educational app, Bubble Guppies: Animal School Day, skyrocketed to the number-one educational app list in the U.S. and Canada and number-two paid app list domestically.

Co-developed by Bubble Guppies series creators, Johnny Belt and Robert Scull and curriculum specialists, and tested by focus groups, the app teaches kids all about animals and allows them to take part in a day of play at school. Through a series of interactive games, kids will learn about animal diet, animal habitats and animal attributes- what penguins like to eat, where baby giraffes live, and what zebras and clownfish have in common (stripes!).
As kids follow any of the ten featured animals and complete an Animal School Day, they earn a Gold Star - a Gold Starfish, that is – which rewards them and encourages them to earn more. Along the way, kids will laugh along with the Bubble Guppies' animal-themed jokes such as: What kind of dog has the cleanest hair? A sham-poodle!
In addition to playing through an entire Animal School Day, kids can choose to play one of the four rich and replayable educational games on their own. After every game, kids earn a reward sticker or a toy for Bubble Puppy. They can then visit and decorate Bubble Puppy's doghouse to see and interact with their rewards.
Bubble Guppies is created and executive-produced by Jonny Belt and Robert Scull and co-executive produced by Janice Burgess, the Emmy Award-winning team behind the hit Nickelodeon series' The Backyardigans and Little Bill. In each episode of Bubble Guppies, the characters lead the learning process, discovering something of interest on their way to school and exploring that theme from a variety of angles. Bubble Guppies focuses on a wide range of topics and everyday experiences kids can relate to – from dinosaurs to dentists, rock n' roll to recycling, and colors to cowboys. The half-hour series features a variety show format with a strong narrative that relates to the theme of the episode.

The Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade has been the nation's star attraction for decades, and this year, the "Today" show's Matt Lauer, Savannah Guthrie and Al Roker will host and treat viewers to Thanksgiving's best entertainment special. Stars joining the festivities this year include Kareem Abdul-Jabbar; Trace Adkins; Big Apple Circus; Chica and the gang from Sprout; Colbie Caillat; Rachel Crow; Thirza Defoe; Jimmy Fallon & The Roots; Flo Rida; Whoopi Goldberg; Chris Isaak; Carly Rae Jepsen; Karmin; Kidz Bop; Christian Laettner; Sandra Lee; Mannheim Steamroller; Jennette McCurdy; Don McLean; Megan & Liz; Olivia Culpo, Miss USA 2012; the Muppets and cast of Sesame Street; Neon Trees; Power Rangers Megaforce; Cody Simpson; the U.S. Olympic gold medalists -- Gabby Douglas, McKayla Maroney, Aly Raisman, Kyla Ross and Jordyn Wieber; The Wanted; and Food Network's Iron Chef Geoffrey Zakarian.

"This year we are thrilled to once again celebrate with some of the nation's best performers as we kick off the holiday season."
Featuring signature elements, the Macy's Parade has marked the start of the holiday season, since its inception in 1924. This year, the lineup of wonder unfolds with 16 giant character balloons; 40 novelty/ornament balloons, balloonicles, balloonheads and trycaloons; 28 floats; 1,600 cheerleaders and dancers; 900 clowns; 11 marching bands; a host of celebrity performers and the one-and-only Santa Claus.
"The 86th Annual Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade will again make history as it debuts three impressive giant balloons, six over-the-top floats, an amazing array of talent and the most remarkable high school and college marching bands in the nation," said Amy Kule, executive producer of Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. She added, "This incredible cavalcade will make its way down 6th Avenue, a path that marks only the seventh time the parade has changed its route. And, as it has during turbulent times in our history, we hope the Macy's Parade serves as a beacon of hope for all who tune in and gather with friends and family to give thanks this season, as they continue to heal from the devastating aftermath of super-storm Sandy. During its 86th year, the parade continues to create new memories and magical moments for more than three million live spectators and over 50 million who tune in across the country."

PHOTOS: Happy Thanksgiving! Iconic Parade Brings The Smiles Back To New York City
Macy's Parade is a hit
Joy was bought back to New York today for the Thanksgiving Day parade - a much-needed injection of positivity following the upset of Hurricane Sandy.
Macy's annual procession is an iconic fixture of the holiday, and some familiar faces were spotted on various floats.

British boyband sensations The Wanted were also on hand, as were the US Olympic gymnasts.
Rachel Crow, of The X Factor USA's first season, joined in the fun with fellow Nickelodeon stars.
Her elimination - which was a result of a Nicole Scherzinger-induced deadlock - is seen by many as the reason why the former Pussycat Doll was axed from the show's panel. Luckily, she's many viewers' favourite panellist in the UK show!

Nickelodeon And Birds Eye Announce Some Of The Best Recipes They Received From Children As Part Of Their "iCarly iCook With Birds Eye" Initiative; 'Yakimaniac Veggie Martians' To Feature In An Upcoming Brand New Episode Of "iCarly" Premiering In November 2012!
Below is a Birds Eye Press Release from PRNewswire:
Birds Eye® + Nickelodeon + Kid "Chefs" = Out Of This World Veggie Creations
Birds Eye Helps Kids Share 16,000 New Ways to Get Wild and Wacky With Veggies
PARSIPPANY, N.J., Nov. 8, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Yakimaniac Veggie Martians. Taste Tester Corn Jalapeno Dip. These are just two of the sixteen thousand wacky, out of this world recipe ideas gleaned from a virtual kitchen (crammed with kids) as part of the "iCarly iCook with Birds Eye" initiative.
Pinnacle Foods' Birds Eye brand teamed up with Nickelodeon's hit live-action series iCarly to embark on a mission to be the first company to go straight to kids for veggie inspiration. The initiative asked kids to share ideas and recipes for a fun and silly veggie dish and the response was a resounding success. Now, to honor kids' creativity, one of the top recipe ideas, Yakimaniac Veggie Martians, will be featured on an upcoming episode of Nickelodeon's iCarly in November.
Jennette McCurdy, star of Nickelodeon's iCarly and Birds Eye's veggie-loving ambassador led the initiative. "The awesome thing about the Birds Eye campaign is that it's all about kids talking to kids to get each other excited about veggies," said McCurdy. "Veggies have always been cool, but now there's proof!"
The recipe ideas revealed that kids have their own idea about what makes veggies enticing and exciting. The number one finding that sparked the most veggie-creativity was mixing and matching different vegetables and ingredients, with the majority of entries including a medley of colorful vegetable blends. A second finding showed more than half of submissions included bite-sized ingredients that are on-the-go, easy to enjoy and allows kids to eat with their hands.
In the Birds Eye Test Kitchen, Executive Chef Michael Christiansen took cues from the recipe concepts to create a special collection of kid-friendly recipes. From martians to cupcakes, vegetables are the star of these recipes inspired by Birds Eye's virtual kitchen:
* Yakimaniac Veggie Martians – Martian-ize dinnertime by letting kids add personality to these delights with edible glitter, pretzel antennas, and veggie faces.
* Veggie Cupcakes – Let them eat cake (as long as it's loaded with veggies). Parents can feel great about this savory, veggie-licious spin on a classic, favorite treat: the cupcake.
* iTasty Corn Pizza with Pumpkin – Not your standard slice of pie, this pizza packs a punch of pumpkin and veggie-rich layers in every bite.
* Taste Tester Corn Jalapeno Dip – This zesty dip deserves a fiesta. With individual tortilla bowls, kids will love this vibrant blend of colorful vegetables.
* Veggie Smoothie – Scrumptious. Sippable. Simple. This brilliant orange smoothie will leave the kids begging for more veggies… to sip.
All of these recipes feature Birds Eye Steamfresh® products, which are perfect for kids because no knives or hot stoves are required. Kids can help their mom simply by pressing the buttons on the microwave.
"We're excited to share the creative process with kids and inspire them to get involved in meal planning – it's like having our own team of junior 'chefs'," said Brandi Unchester, Senior Brand Manager, Birds Eye Steamfresh. "Kids across America have told us what they want from their vegetables, and now we're working to ensure that they get just that." The brand is looking to these kid-inspired creations for future product innovations. This initiative is part of a three -year commitment with the Partnership for a Healthier America (PHA), for which First Lady Michelle Obama has lauded Birds Eye's innovative approach to inspiring kids and helping support moms.

UK's CBeebies Picks Up The Rights To The New Brand Animated Preschool Series "Bing Bunny"; To Be Executive Produced By Howard Litton, Former Nickelodeon UK MD And Senior VP Of Nickelodeon UK
From C21Media:
Bing Bunny bounces on to CBeebiesAlso, from TBI Vision:
CBeebies in the UK has picked up Bing Bunny, a new preschool series based on the popular children's books by author and illustrator Ted Dewan.
Bing Bunny
The 78x7’ animated series is being made by UK indie Acamar Films, a firm set up by former BBC exec Mikael Shields and Phillip Bergkvist and which hired former Nickelodeon UK chief Howard Litton a couple of years ago.
Acamar has been working on Bing Bunny with Dewan for several years. The property already comprises a number of books and a child-friendly online destination called Bingbunny.com, which is still in beta.
The franchise is now due a major push, however, after HarperCollins picked up publishing rights, promising a “groundbreaking transmedia” launch shortly, and The Licensing Company onboard to handle merchandising.
The TV series doesn’t yet have an airdate but CBeebies is the first among a string of broadcasters Acamar hopes to announce in the coming weeks and months.
Industry veteran Shields will produce the show while Lucy Murphy – an exec with credits at King Rollo, Novel Entertainment and Aardman – is associate producer. Litton is exec producing.
Shields said: “We are absolutely thrilled to be working with CBeebies and, after a lengthy development, just delighted that the show is going to be made and broadcast to children worldwide.”
Bing Bunny celebrates the realities, learning and adventure of being a preschool child.
According to the producers, each episode of the show will offer a “‘micro-drama” that explores what life is really like for preschoolers and the grown-ups in their lives – from taking a bath to making a smoothie.”
