Talking Planet is an animated language teaching tool for early learners and their families. It has been developed specifically to bring indigenous and minority endangered languages into the home and the digital world through the gentle adventures of Mimi, Pip and Momo.

We use animation to deliver language learning through the same techniques that we all use to learn to speak our first language. Each episode features two or three new verbs made into a short humorous story performed by the colourful trio with dual language inserted text to allow families to follow the dialogue.

Mi’kmaw language version has been produced in association with the Mawita’mk Society through Rosie Sylliboy and the We'koqma'q community in Nova Scotia.

Mi’kmaw language translation by Charlotte Poulette, with Alexis Googoo (Ba’ti), Kenny Prosper and Carol Anne Johnson.
