MUMBAI: US kids broadcaster Nickelodeon unwraps presents for kids of all ages weekdays this December as the network delivers its annual lineup of holiday programming, featuring five never-before-seen episodes of Nick Jr.'s Max and Ruby, Wow! Wow! Wubbzy!, Yo Gabba Gabba! and Wayside.

Nick Jr. celebrates the holidays with "Frosty Fridays" throughout December as the network treat tots to mini-marathons and brand-new holiday episodes every Friday from noon at 2 pm.

As part of Frosty Fridays, preschoolers can enjoy new episodes every Friday at 1:30 p.m. of shows, including Max and Ruby, Wow! Wow! Wubbzy! and Yo Gabba Gabba!. The marathons will also include seasonal episodes of Nick Jr.'s series The Backyardigans, Dora the Explorer, Go, Diego, Go!, Blue's Clues and The Wonder Pets!.


From 3-21 December, Nickelodeon's Ha-Ha Holidays celebration will gift kids with holiday-themed episodes weekdays of shows like SpongeBob SqaurePants, Rugrats and Danny Phantom. In addition, Nickelodeon will premiere a new seasonal episode of Wayside on 14 December.

On 3 December SpongeBob SqaurePants' Christmas Special airs. Nobody in Bikini Bottom has ever heard of Christmas or Santa Claus until Sandy lets them in on this surface tradition. SpongeBob wants to bring Christmas to Bikini Bottom this year and his enthusiasm is infectious. Everyone gets into the picture, waiting for Santa to arrive on the big day. Everyone except Squidward has scoffed at SpongeBob the whole while. When Santa is a no show on Christmas morning, everyone blames SpongeBob for getting their hopes up. But in a surprise ending, SpongeBob is proven right, and Christmas does end up coming after all.

Rugrats will offer The Santa Experience. The families escape to a mountain cabin in search of "the perfect Christmas." Things get a little crazy when Tommy and Chuckie lay traps for Santa and Chuckie's dad dresses up as Santa and tries to squeeze his way down the chimney.

Jimmy Neutron gets all Holly Jolly. Jimmy is convinced that Santa Claus does not exist. To prove his theory, he travels to the North Pole with Carl and Sheen where they discover a remote toy factory. When Jimmy's homing device malfunctions, it emits a blast of energy that hits the source of the signal -- Santa Claus. With the big guy's atoms temporarily scrambled, who can deliver the presents? Jimmy must now put his doubts aside, load up the hypercube, and try to save Christmas before the people of Retroville have to settle for a new holiday -- "Pule Day". Featured Guest Star: Mel Brooks as Santa.

Fairly OddParents enjoy Christmas Every Day. Everyone loves Christmas. Who wouldn't want to celebrate it every day? Apparently the whole world, that's who. The globe is put into gridlock after Timmy wishes for 365 days of Christmas a year. Santa's overworked, Mom and Dad can't work and the other holidays are furious that jolly old Saint Nick is getting all the attention, not to mention all the holiday magic.

The other holidays set out to take Santa down for good. Since Wanda and Cosmo are magically-depleted during this Season, Timmy must go it alone to the North Pole in order to save Santa and put the calendar back on schedule.
