Voice Actor Eric Bauza Reveals How Nickelodeon Gave Him His First Big Break

Filipino Canadian voice actor Eric Bauza (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Rise of the TMNT), who is set to become the new voice of beloved Looney Tunes character Bugs Bunny, recently revealed how Nickelodeon gave him his first big break in voice acting!

Bauza grew up in the Scarborough area of metropolitan Toronto.  At Cardinal Newman Catholic High School in the 1990s, he delivered the morning announcements in the voice of Homer Simpson and produced video sketches for school assemblies invoking Ace Ventura and Austin Powers.

He pursued radio, television and film at Centennial College. He had an internship at an animation studio in Los Angeles - which he got after delivering his resume in an oversized fortune cookie - where he worked as a production assistant and voiced some side characters. He got his name out by distributing a rudimentary demo reel on audio cassette. “I printed his resume, miniaturized it, and we stuck it in the fortune cookie,” his brother says.

Bauza returned to Canada, graduated and was unemployed for about a year, before getting a stint at an animation studio in Ottawa. After that gig dried up, he started making trips back to Southern California. He found work in production and editing, while picking up more voice-acting roles.

“All the friends I made at the internship started working for various places like Nickelodeon, Disney, Cartoon Network. And they always remembered I had this weird ability to change my voice and do funny voices. Years later, they would invite me back to work on their projects,” Bauza told the Toronto Star.

The cast of El Tigre: The Adventures of Manny Rivera

In the mid-2000s, he got his first big role after meeting Book of Life director Jorge Gutierrez, who was developing a pilot for Nickelodeon called El Tigre: The Adventures of Manny Rivera.

Gutierrez says he had auditioned hundreds of people to play Rodolfo Rivera, the overprotective superhero father of the title character, but couldn’t find the person with the right voice — a blend of Ricardo Montalban and Scarface but with a Mexican accent.

Bauza took up the challenge. He picked up a DVD box set of Fantasy Island, the series Montalban starred in in the 1970s and 1980s, and went home and studied him.

Gutierrez says Bauza came back and performed the voice.

“You know how in movies you drop the glass when you see or hear something? I was like, ‘That’s it! That’s it!’”

Gutierrez says he told Nickelodeon executives: “We found a Canadian-Filipino guy who can do a better Mexican accent than any Mexican I’ve ever auditioned.”

It took a bit of convincing, but the studio agreed to bring him on and get him a U.S. work visa.

Bauza then went on to voice a range of characters in Nickelodeon's CG-animated Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles series, going on to voice Splinter in the network's 2D-animated Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles series. The Fil-Canadian voice actor can currently be heard voicing a variety of roles on Nick's The Loud House and it's spin-off, The Casagrandes.

Introducing the 2020 NickALive! Awards, celebrating the best of Nickelodeon in 2020!


Every year during December, NickALive! usually asks visitors to vote for what they liked best about Nickelodeon during the year with the Best Of Nickelodeon.. fan poll - and this year is no different, however, the poll will be bigger. Much bigger! Introducing the first-ever NickALive! Awards!

Fans can now cast their votes across 32 different categories, each representing a different part of Nickelodeon - that's double the amount of polls in last years Best of Nickelodeon survey! And, to make things fairer, preschool series now have their own categories.

Apart from the 'Most Looking Forward To' categories, the nominees include programming or content broadcast or released on a Nickelodeon channel or platform between December 1, 2019 and November 30, 2020. New shows and specials that make their debut in December 2020 will be included in the 2021 NickALive! Awards.

UPDATE (12/24) - Some good news and some bad news - depending how you look at it! Unfortunately, a lot of the categories have reached their max number of votes allowed, so regrettably, I've had to close them. However, there's still a few categories available to vote in, which you can check out below! Thank-you to everyone who voted in the NickALive! Awards, so far, I can't wait to announce the results!

There are two ways to vote. You can start HERE and follow the breadcrumbs through each poll, or by scrolling down and selecting which poll you'd like to vote in.

- You don't need to vote in each category (but it would be great if you did!)

- You can cast one vote per day in each category.

- Although this Big Ballot is meant for Nickelodeon fans around the world, some of the nominees have only aired or have been held in the USA.

Remember, NickALive! is an unofficial website, and the inaugural 2020 NickALive! Awards fan poll is for fun and entertainment purposes only. Unfortunately, nobody will actually receive an Splatty - or is it a Nicky?

Any problems voting or questions? Let me know by using the 'Connect with NickALive!' box in the sidebar (I respond quicker on Twitter) - or drop a comment below!

The 2020 NickALive! Awards are open now and will close on Wednesday 30th December 2020 at 23:59 GMT.

The results of 2020 NickALive! Awards will be revealed on midnight GMT on Friday 1st January 2021, as part of NickALive!'s annual New Year's celebration post. Remember to let me know how you voted and why in the comments below, and make sure to share the poll - each poll has its own sharing link!

Here are the nominees of NickALive! Awards 2020:

Nickelodeon and Variety today unveiled a first look at the network's upcoming CG-animated Rugrats reboot and upcoming CG-animated series based on Big Nate!


The Next-Gen Nick ad campaign, showcasing Nickelodeon's upcoming programming highlights is currently running on Variety.com, and will also grace the cover of the latest issue of Variety magazine.

Via Jim Mortensen.

The advertisement also showcases SpongeBob prequel Kamp Koral: SpongeBob’s Under YearsBaby Shark’s Big Show!The Tiny Chef Show, and the recently launched Santiago Of The Seas.


The news that the new CG-animated Rugrats series is not too surprising: when Nickelodeon first announced that they were reviving the beloved series for a new generation of fans, the series was announced along with a planned CGI/live action hybrid theatrical movie from Paramount Players, which would of seen the babies reimagined in CGI along with live-action actors. However, the film has been shelved for the time being. Additionally, Nickelodeon Animation has been advertising job vacancies for CGI artists for the new Rugrats reboot on their jobs board.


Rugrats focuses on a group of toddlers, Tommy Pickles, Chuckie Finster, twins Phil and Lil DeVille, and Angelica Pickles, and their day-to-day lives that became adventures in their imaginations. The original Rugrats Nicktoon series launched in August of 1991 as one of the original Nicktoons and instantly became a groundbreaking phenomenon, spawning consumer products, three hit theatrical releases, various video games and cementing its place in pop culture history through its iconic characters, storytelling and unique visual style. Rugrats was in production for nine seasons over the course of 13 years, and also spawned three spin-off series, All Grown Up!, Angelica and Susie's School Daze and Rugrats: Tales from the Crib. The series earned four Daytime Emmy Awards, six Kids' Choice Awards and its own star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.


Nickelodeon is slated to premiere their Rugrats revival during 2021, with most of the surviving original voice actors expected to reprise their respective roles. However, Dil Pickles, Tommy's younger brother who was introduced in The Rugrats Movie, is not expected to feature in the series until season two.

Update (12/24) - It's being reported that in addition to Nancy Cartwright reprising her role as Chuckie Finster, Melanie Chartoff will reprise her role of Didi Pickles and Cheryl Chase will reprise her role as Angelica Pickles. They'll be joined by Little Women star Terra Jolé. Please note that this news has yet to be announced.

Announced earlier this year, Nickelodeon is taking the misadventures of Big Nate from page to screen with an all-new animated TV series based on the best-selling children’s books written and drawn by acclaimed author and cartoonist Lincoln Peirce. The eponymous 26-episode series follows Nate, a precocious 11-year-old boy, and his best friends as they navigate sixth grade with humor and style. Big Nate is being produced by Nickelodeon in Burbank, Calif.

Big Nate is a book title I've wanted to translate into a series for a long time, and I am so happy this awesome, super-funny character is coming to Nickelodeon," said Ramsey Naito, Executive Vice President, Animation Production and Development, Nickelodeon. “All of creator Lincoln Peirce's slightly unruly, but entirely relatable characters share Nick’s same creative DNA, and we can't wait for them to join our amazing family!"

The TV series will feature brand-new original storylines centered on Nate and his mischievous shenanigans that usually result in disaster, detention or both. Whether trying to convince everyone that their school is haunted to get out of a test, or accidentally setting the pet iguana free in the school’s air ducts, Nate and his friends cause trouble everywhere--and must keep their cool before they get caught.

The Big Nate TV series is executive produced by Mitch Watson (All Hail King Julien) and John Cohen (The Angry Birds Movie), with Peirce serving as consultant throughout development and production. Bridget McMeel is co-producer.

Commenting on the uniqueness about Bhoot Bandhus that will strike with the kids audience, Jaipuria further shared with AnimationXpress, “Pinaki & Happy- The Bhoot Bandhus is about the characterisation and the plot. We’ve actually nuanced each and every character in the show, their mannerisms and their traits is what, I feel, is going to make a difference. Then there’s the Ghost family – Colonel Suri and Aunty Suri, who thinks she’s a great cook, but she really isn’t but has some magical power and can move things, is what adds more life to the show. And then there’s the talking Ghost Dog. So, it’s a one of a kind show, you’ll know more when you watch the show. It’s a very different show where drama, curiosity, friendship, chaos and fun enfold when the ghost world meets the real human world. It’s also been written in a very different yet funny and spooky way, diving into the Ghost World full of adventures.”

Pivoting the media mix to the new normal, Nickelodeon has chalked out an 360 degree marketing campaign starting from cross network promotions, within the network promotions, promotions on music apps, Cable and DTH networks, social media and many more.

With the launch of Pinaki & Happy – The Bhoot Bandhus, the franchise has been true to its repute of being a pioneer and has plugged another entertainment white space in the spooky-comic genre which will further strengthen the franchise’s diverse content portfolio.

Year-Ender: Why 2020 has been the year of children on TV

Kids genre continues to see a 20-25% category growth when compared to last year

Coronavirus Impact on Kids Channel, Kids Genre Viewership

However, the rise in viewership hasn’t resulted in increase in advertising revenue.

2020 has been a tough year for everyone but more so for kids as they are cooped up in the house since March due to the pandemic. This has resulted in a rise in viewership for kids channels on television. As per the industry estimates, kids genre witnessed 40-47% rise in viewership during lockdown, that is between March-June. Even as viewership has stabilised with online classes, the genre continues to witness a high interaction, “During the lockdown, kids category saw over 45% growth in viewership. Further, the genre share which is usually at about 7% increased to as much as 9%. Of course, it has stabilised now back to 7% but we have still registered a high in viewership because the total TV viewership pie has grown. The genre continues to see a 20-25% category growth when compared to last year,” Nina Elavia Jaipuria, head – Hindi and Kids TV Network (COLORS and Nickelodeon India), Viacom18, told BrandWagon Online. 

Interestingly, while other genre of channels such as entertainment had resorted to reruns of old shows due to lockdown, kids genre was one of the few running original content besides launching new content. This is primarily due to the fact that animation content is planned well in advance. “We had planned well in advance for content which was to be aired in Q2 and Q3 of 2020 well ahead of time,” Abhishek Dutta, South Asia Network Head, POGO and Cartoon Network, said. 

From Pogo forming strategic partnerships with Prasar Bharti to simulcast Chota Bheem, to other networks launching their new shows ahead of schedule, to releasing interactive marketing tactics, broadcasters adopted new techniques this year to meet the growing demand for content. WarnerMedia’s POGO launched Titoo – Har Jawaab Ka Sawaal Hu in July and Smashing Simmba on Children’s day/Diwali. Meanwhile Cartoon network, WarnerMedia’s another kids channel, acquired and rolled out Bandbudh aur Budbak in April, when the show was originally meant to be aired in May. Similarly, Disney rolled out new series such as Guddu, Bapu and Gadget Guru Ganesha as summer releases while Viacom18’ s Nickelodeon and Sonic launched Ting Tong, and Pinaki and Happy – The Bhoot Bandhus in Diwali. For Dutta, home-grown content has resonated with audiences the most. “Home-grown content is currently the corner-stone of kids content in India and our strategy for both Pogo and Cartoon Network has been to strengthen our offerings of popular and premium home-grown kids entertainment content that offers a local flavour to our young viewers in India. This is primarily why this year we largely launched home-grown IPs,” he elaborated, adding that the network will launch another home-grown content next year titled Lambu-G Tingu-G, produced by Cosmos Maya. 

However, the rise in viewership hasn’t resulted in increase in advertising revenue. “The kids genre witnessed a drop in ad revenues due to a drop in the number of advertisers on account of the pandemic. While certain categories like Edtech or BFSI were a boon for the kids genre, they could not compensate for the drop in other category investments,” Vanita Keswani, CEO, Madison Media Sigma, explained.

The TV industry reported a 6.4% growth in advertising revenue in 2019 to reach Rs 32,000 crore, Ficci-EY report, revealed. Of this, kids channels account for 5% that is Rs 1,600 crore of the ad volume. According to industry estimates, the cost of a ten-second ad spot on kids channels such as Nick, Disney, among others ranges between Rs 1,000 – Rs 3,000 during prime time that is between 8 pm – 10 pm. However, while volume of ad for the genre declined in the first half of the fiscal, the category saw a revival of advertisements from September. As per BARC, the kids genre has seen a 15% increase in advertising volumes when compared to last year. This is because this year, the genre registered a lot of co-viewership from parents as well as kids. For Dutta, the genre has observed a change in advertising and this change is being observed more on a pan-regional level rather than local level wherein some advertisers who are not essentially kids advertising brands are coming on to the platform. “Due to the new normal where everything was going digital, we saw a bunch of new advertisers such as Vedantu, Whitehat Jr, Byju’s as well as ecommerce and e-wallets platforms like, Phonepe and AmazonPay coming on board, We had a good share of 50-50 kid and non-kid advertisers because of this,” Jaipuria stated.

Special to Also Air on Comedy Central on Friday, Dec. 11, at 7 p.m. (ET/PT) and CBS Television Network on Monday, Dec. 21, at 9 p.m. (ET/PT)

Sharif Hamza for TIME

NEW YORK, Dec. 3, 2020 -- TIME, TIME for Kids and Nickelodeon announced 15-year-old scientist and inventor Gitanjali Rao from Colorado as the 2020 Kid of the Year, the multiplatform initiative recognizing extraordinary young leaders who are making a positive impact in their communities.

Selected from a field of more than 5,000, 2020 Kid of the Year Gitanjali Rao is featured on the Dec. 14 cover of TIME, available on newsstands on Friday, Dec. 4.

In an interview with Angelina Jolie for TIME, Rao spoke about her work using technology to tackle issues ranging from contaminated drinking water to opioid addiction and cyberbullying: "I don't look like your typical scientist. Everything I see on TV is that it's an older, usually white man as a scientist. It's weird to me that it was almost like people had assigned roles, regarding like their gender, their age, the color of their skin. My goal has really shifted not only from creating my own devices to solve the world's problems, but inspiring others to do the same as well. Because, from personal experience, it's not easy when you don't see anyone else like you. So I really want to put out that message: If I can do it, you can do it, and anyone can do it."

Meet TIME's First-Ever Kid of the Year

The world belongs to those who shape it. And however uncertain that world may feel at a given moment, the reassuring reality seems to be that each new generation produces more of what these kids—five Kid of the Year finalists selected from a field of more than 5,000 Americans, ages 8 to 16—have already achieved: positive impact, in all sizes.

Read about how we picked the Kid of the Year here. And watch TIME’s Kid of the Year broadcast special on Dec. 4 at 7:30 p.m. ET on Nickelodeon.

Kid of the Year: Gitanjali Rao, 15
Lone Tree, Colo.

“Observe, brainstorm, research, build and communicate.” That is what the brilliant young scientist and inventor Gitanjali Rao told actor and activist Angelina Jolie about her process, over Zoom, from her home in Colorado, during a break in her virtual schooling. Just 15 years old, Rao has been selected from a field of more than 5,000 nominees as TIME’s first ever Kid of the Year. She spoke about her astonishing work using technology to tackle issues ranging from contaminated drinking water to opioid addiction and cyberbullying, and about her mission to create a global community of young innovators to solve problems the world over. Even over video chat, her brilliant mind and generous spirit shone through, along with her inspiring message to other young people: don’t try to fix every problem, just focus on one that excites you. “If I can do it,” she said, “anybody can do it.”

Jolie, a TIME contributing editor, is an Academy Award–winning actor and special envoy of the U.N. High Commissioner for Refugees

ANGELINA JOLIE: When did you know that science was a passion of yours?

GITANJALI RAO: I feel like there wasn’t really one specific aha moment. I was always someone who wanted to put a smile on someone’s face. That was my everyday goal, just to make someone happy. And it soon turned into, How can we bring positivity and community to the place we live? And then when I was in second or third grade, I started thinking about how can we use science and technology to create social change. I was like 10 when I told my parents that I wanted to research carbon nanotube sensor technology at the Denver Water quality research lab, and my mom was like, “A what?” [Editor’s note: they are cylindrical molecules made of carbon atoms that are very sensitive to chemical changes, and thus are good for detecting chemicals in water, among other uses.] It was just that changing factor of, you know this work is going to be in our generation’s hands pretty soon. So if no one else is gonna do it, I’m gonna do it.

AJ: I love that. So much of what my generation should be doing is just making sure we do as little damage as possible to ensure that the next generation can take the lead.

I know one of your latest innovations helps prevent cyberbullying. Could you tell me about that?

GR: It’s a service called Kindly—there’s an app and a Chrome ­extension—which is able to detect cyberbullying at an early stage, based on artificial-­intelligence technology. I started to hard-code in some words that could be considered bullying, and then my engine took those words and identified words that are similar. You type in a word or phrase, and it’s able to pick it up if it’s bullying, and it gives you the option to edit it or send it the way it is. The goal is not to punish. As a teenager, I know teenagers tend to lash out sometimes. Instead, it gives you the chance to rethink what you’re saying so that you know what to do next time around.

AJ: So you just put it on your kids’ phones?

GR: Yeah. I put out a survey to parents, teachers and students, and I honestly expected that students don’t want to be micromanaged.

AJ: Right. My kids would be like, “Don’t touch my phone, I’ll do it myself.”

GR: No, exactly, that’s what I would be like. But a lot of the teenagers were telling me that, you know, it doesn’t seem like I’m being micromanaged; it seems like I’m being given an opportunity to learn from my mistakes. So that’s what I was superexcited about, that they understood what the goal of it was.

AJ: The way you’re talking about technology as a tool to remind people and help them to grow seems like a very new and different thing. It’s so exciting to have such a forward-­thinking young, and female, inventor.

Does that affect you in any way? It’s surprising because I think of women as being brilliant, but there are so few women in the science and tech fields.

GR: I don’t look like your typical scientist. Everything I see on TV is that it’s an older, usually white man as a scientist. It’s weird to me that it was almost like people had assigned roles, regarding like their gender, their age, the color of their skin. My goal has really shifted not only from creating my own devices to solve the world’s problems, but inspiring others to do the same as well. Because, from personal experience, it’s not easy when you don’t see anyone else like you. So I really want to put out that message: If I can do it, you can do it, and anyone can do it.

AJ: I know you have these “innovation sessions.” Tell me about those.

Gitanjali Rao loves to problem-solve and experiment with everything from
artificial-intelligence technology to baking | Sharif Hamza for TIME

GR: I just looked at what worked for me and decided to share it with everyone else. So I made this process that I use for everything now: it’s observe, brainstorm, research, build, communicate. It started with a simple presentation and lesson plans, and then I started adding labs and contests that students could do. Now I’ve partnered with rural schools, girls in STEM organizations, museums all across the world, and bigger organizations like Shanghai International Youth Science and Technology group and the Royal Academy of Engineering in London to run innovation workshops.

The students that I work with, they just don’t know where to start. I think that if you give them that spark that they can then build off of, then that changes everything. That means one more person in this world wants to come up with ideas to solve problems.

At the end of every workshop, everyone has something that they can start working on. If you can do this in 45 minutes to an hour, imagine what you can do if you spend months and months working on it. I’m so excited when I get an email like, “Hey, I attended your workshop four months ago and here’s my finished product, I really love it, it’s a shoe that calls 911.”

AJ: That is insanely impressive. For so many young people, it takes a lot to find the confidence to be able to put an idea forward. You have a brilliant mind, clearly, but you are very, very generous with that mind, and that’s just really wonderful. What are you working on now?

GR: I’m currently working on an easy way to help detect bio-contaminants in water—things like parasites. I’m hoping for this to be something that’s inexpensive and accurate so that people in third-world countries can identify what’s in their water.

And I recently hit my goal of 30,000 students who I have mentored, which is superexciting. It’s like creating a community of innovators. I really hope the work that all of these kids are doing identifies innovation as a necessity and not something that’s a choice anymore. I hope I can be a small part of that.

AJ: I think you are. Your generation is unique. You don’t just accept what’s being put forward, but ­really question it, and that’s so important. I know there are many, many issues we’re facing today. With your work on water contamination, is the environment something that’s very much on your radar?

GR: Yeah. Our generation is facing so many problems that we’ve never seen before. But then at the same time we’re facing old problems that still exist. Like, we’re sitting here in the middle of a new global pandemic, and we’re also like still facing human-rights issues. There are problems that we did not create but that we now have to solve, like climate change and cyberbullying with the introduction of technology.

I think more than anything right now, we just need to find that one thing we’re passionate about and solve it. Even if it’s something as small as, I want to find an easy way to pick up litter. Everything makes a difference. Don’t feel pressured to come up with something big.

Most of my work with the bio-contaminants is based on a gene-based therapy solution which I’m still trying to figure out. I’m also working on a product that helps to diagnose prescription-­opioid addiction at an early stage based on protein production of the mu opioid receptor gene. I’ve been really, really interested in genetics. That’s what I like, so that’s what I’m deciding to work on.

AJ: You know, one of the things you pointed out which is so important is that there is so much, you can get overwhelmed. When I started working in refugee camps, there are so many different issues to deal with within a displaced situation. You get overwhelmed, and you don’t really move. I love what you’re saying: find what you’re passionate about, and don’t try to solve everything. Every solution is a part of the bigger picture of what we have to do. I really hear that and appreciate you saying that.

Where do you get your news or do your research?

GR: My pop-culture news is actually MIT Tech Review. I read it constantly. I think that’s really where inspiration strikes: hearing about all these amazing people at schools like MIT and Harvard who are doing such amazing work with technology. And I try to connect it back to what I see out there and put it together in a way that no one’s seen before.

AJ: When you’re not doing all of these amazing things—because I feel like I’m speaking to a 60-year-old scientist in ­Geneva—what do you do that’s just a 15-year-old thing?

GR: Actually I spend more time doing 15-year-old things during quarantine. I bake an ungodly amount. It’s not good, but it’s baking. And, like, it’s science too.

AJ: So the science of the kitchen is not your specialty?

GR: I guess not, no. To be fair, most of the time we don’t have eggs at home, or like flour, so I have to like go online and search eggless, flourless, sugarless cookies, and then I try to make that. I made bread recently and it was good, so I’m proud of myself.

AJ: Well, I’m just so happy to get to know you a little bit. I’m sure I’ll be using your inventions in years to come and just being in awe of you as I watch you do more and more in your life, and I can say, “I met her once.”

Tyler Gordon first made his mark with celebrity portraits Andrew Toth—Nickelodeon

Tyler Gordon, 14
San Jose, Calif.

High school freshman Tyler Gordon has faced more challenges than some people experience in a lifetime. He used a wheelchair for nearly two years after breaking bones in his legs and hips because of a vitamin D deficiency. He was born deaf and underwent a surgery at age 5 that gave him some hearing, but he still speaks with a stutter. In elementary school, he got bullied so much that he barely spoke.

“His escape was to not speak at all; he’d nod his head or point, he was so afraid,” says Gordon’s mother Nicole Kindle.

But at 10, Gordon found his artistic voice. After watching his mom paint, he decided to try it himself and won first place in a school art contest with a portrait he’d made of the principal. In the four years since, he’s painted more than 500 portraits of Black icons who inspire him, most recently Vice President–elect Kamala Harris, who called him right before Thanksgiving to tell him he’s “amazing” and has a “gift.”

“Sometimes I can’t talk and get words out, so I speak through my art,” Gordon says. Painting helps him move past the bullying, which he still experiences; he lost a front tooth in one incident earlier this year. “It helps me take my mind somewhere else. I don’t want to keep thinking about that same moment for the rest of my life.”

His big break came in 2018, when his portrait of NBA star Kevin Durant went viral and caught the eye of the player’s mother, who bought it for $300. Celebrities started calling for commissions. Among the stars he’s painted and met are Janet Jackson, Kevin Hart, Jennifer Lopez and Alex Rodriguez. In 2019, a portrait of the Central Park Five fetched more than $100,000 at auction, and he won a 2020 Global Child Prodigy Award. This past summer, in the wake of George Floyd’s death, Gordon used his canvas to raise awareness about victims of police brutality, feeling a particular affinity to 23-year-old Elijah McClain, who also had special needs and an artistic side.

Media interviews and speaking engagements have helped Gordon combat his fear of public speaking, and he hosts virtual painting classes every Wednesday on Instagram, where he boasts nearly 50,000 followers.

“Since he started painting, I can’t get the kid to be quiet,” says Kindle. “He’s not afraid of the stutter anymore.” Now, by starting his own online platform for video tutorials called Tongue Tye’d, he hopes he can show other kids how to overcome their challenges with art as well. —Olivia B.

Jordan Reeves runs Make Just Right, a youth design consultancy, through
her nonprofit Andrew Toth—Nickelodeon

Jordan Reeves, 14
Columbia, Mo.

For Jordan Reeves, having a limb difference has helped her envision a more accessible world. The 14-year-old designer and activist was born with a left arm that stopped growing beneath her elbow, a physical difference that helped ignite her passion for design. In the past four years, Reeves has created a 3-D-printable prosthesis for kids that shoots out biodegradable sparkles, consulted for companies like Mattel to create toys that affirm limb difference and even co-written a memoir about what she’s learned from growing up with a disability.

Reeves sees good design as an avenue to empower those with disabilities, which is why she and her mother co-founded Born Just Right, a nonprofit that celebrates kids with physical differences and gives them design and STEM resources so they can come up with their own solutions.

“A lot of kids with disabilities have a different point of view on the world, because the world isn’t made for us really,” she says. “We have this great design mindset because we grow up problem-solving. It’s a pretty cool thing.” But one of the biggest barriers she sees kids facing is finding the confidence to innovate. “It’s so important to believe in yourself,” she says. She found her confidence with the help of her mother, and by seeing the positive results of some of her early work. “[When I started,] I was just 10 and I was able to make an impact, which is so cool,” she says. “Go for it, don’t doubt yourself, don’t think about what other people think—you can make change no matter how big or how small.”

Although 2020 has brought new challenges, it hasn’t slowed Reeves down. She’s been hosting digital-design workshops for Born Just Right, appeared at the United State of Women conference to advocate for gender equity, and was the youngest of 30 global leaders recognized this summer at a 30th-anniversary commemoration of the signing of the Americans with Disabilities Act. She also co-founded the Steam Squad, an online organization that gets kids involved in science, technology, engineering, math and the arts. Up next: working with Microsoft to design a guitar that anyone with mobility challenges can play.

She’s inspired, she says, by the tenacity of her generation. “It’s so sick knowing that I’m a part of a group of people who are working toward the future,” Reeves says. “The world needs a lot of work at times, and it’s important to be there to do as much as you can.” —Cady Lang

In addition to her work in the art world, Bellen Woodard also aspires to be
an astronaut and President of the U.S. Britton Orrange—Nickelodeon

Bellen Woodard, 10
Leesburg, Va.

Bellen Woodard is only 10 years old, but she’s on a mission for inclusion. She has created her own line of crayons in tones that reflect the wide spectrum of skin colors she sees in the world, claiming the title of world’s first crayon activist.

The idea came when one of Woodard’s classmates asked her for a “skin color” crayon. Woodard, who was the only Black student in her grade, says she knew the classmate meant the peach-color crayon. When she told her mother Tosha Woodard about what had happened, Tosha suggested that she pass her classmate a brown crayon instead next time. “But I didn’t want to do that,” Woodard says. “I told her next time I was actually going to ask what color they want because it could be lots of different colors.” Then she got to work making a set of 12 “skin color” crayons.

Although research shows that children can begin to understand and believe racial stereotypes by age 4, an August study by researchers at Skidmore College and Boston University found that parents often delay conversations about race with children because they under-estimate children’s ability to understand the concept. Tosha says her daughter’s crayons have proved a great age-appropriate tool to spread a message of inclusion.

In spring 2019, Woodard launched More Than Peach, a nonprofit that has donated more than $40,000 worth of multicultural crayons and sketchbooks to schoolchildren across the country. Her packet of crayons has been added to the permanent collection at the Virginia Museum of History & Culture.

Woodard says she was surprised by how quickly her message spread. She started by simply talking to her teacher about the crayons, then they were picked up by the rest of her school, and now she gets calls to speak—and distribute her crayons—at schools across the country. In March, she received a special recognition from the Virginia state legislature for her work.

Woodard’s crayons are named for things found in nature—there’s “Sahara” and “Reef,” “Koko” and “Serengeti”—but each is also clearly labeled “skin color.”

“I wanted to have crayons for a purpose,” she says. “The peach crayon is a skin color … but is it the only one? No, it isn’t. My different shades of peaches and browns can hopefully match everyone including me and my friends and my classmates. Just everyone.” —Jasmine Aguilera

Ian McKenna, 16
Austin, Texas

Ian McKenna was in third grade when he learned that nearly a quarter of the kids at his Austin school weren’t getting enough to eat at home. He wanted to help, but local volunteer organizations turned him away, saying he was too young. So he decided to find his own solution. For years, he had been gardening with his mother, and they often distributed their extra vegetables to the neighbors. Why not give the produce to a soup kitchen? “Then I thought, I’m good at gardening,” says McKenna, now 16. “Maybe I could try to start a garden that’s meant solely to help feed these people who are in need.” Better yet, he thought, why not plant a garden at school, so that kids in need could take food home?

McKenna persuaded his school to set aside space for a garden, then he asked the community for donations of seeds and equipment. Other students donated their time. Within months, McKenna’s garden was producing lettuces, spinach, tomatoes, cucumbers and squash for students and their families. Now, seven years later, McKenna’s Giving Garden project has expanded to five area schools in addition to his own backyard garden, and he has provided more than 20,000 lb. of organic produce (enough for 25,000 meals) to Austin families and food pantries.

For most of his gardening activities, McKenna wears the same T-shirt in different colors, emblazoned with what has become a personal motto: BE A GOOD HUMAN. To him, that means helping in any way you can, no matter your age. Even a smile can make a difference in someone’s life, he says. “It lets them know that they are important. It can change their day.”

When COVID-19 hit the U.S., McKenna redoubled his efforts, cooking up to 100 meals out of his home to distribute to the hungry on the weekends, so that he could give them one less thing to worry about. When social distancing meant that volunteers couldn’t work on community garden plots, he started offering online tutorials and a gardening hotline so families could grow at home. Once he realized that some people didn’t know how to prepare the more unusual vegetables in his gardens, like the 100-lb. bullet head wax melons he distributes by the slice, he started offering virtual cooking classes (the melons cook, and taste, like zucchini). While gardening is his core focus, McKenna says he is always looking for new ways to help the hungry. “Hunger doesn’t stop,” he says. “So I won’t stop until it does.” —Aryn Baker

How We Picked the 2020 Kid of the Year

For the past 92 years, TIME has named a Person of the Year. In 2019, then-16-year-old Greta Thunberg became the youngest ever Person of the Year, and the first individual under age 25 to receive the title. Her movement to stop climate change, among other world-shifting youth movements of recent years, make clear that young people carry tremendous influence today, and that they are using that influence to shape a world that matches their vision.

This year, in partnership with Nickelodeon, TIME is recognizing in the U.S. its first ever Kid of the Year, a barometer for the rising leaders of America’s youngest generation. To choose the most influential kids of 2020, we looked across social media and school districts, at actions big and small. “Small steps can lead to big change,” says TIME for Kids editor Andrea Delbanco. “These are everyday kids making change in their communities in a fun and accessible—but very impactful—way.”

Panelists including representatives from the Special Olympics and Laureus Sport for Good Foundation USA formed an advisory committee to help judge the more than 5,000 U.S.-based nominees on the positive impact they’ve had this year and signs that they’ll continue to lead in the future. A committee of kids, including Nickelodeon stars Young Dylan and Chinguun Sergelen, Disney star Sky Katz, Little Chef Ivy, and Time For Kids kid reporters Tiana Sirmans and Raunak Singh, then worked with comedian Trevor Noah to narrow down the finalists and select the ultimate Kid of the Year.

The five finalists have grown food for those in crisis, designed better toys for kids with disabilities, and started new conversations about racial justice. They include Tyler Gordon, 14, from San Jose, Calif.; Jordan Reeves, 14, from Columbia, Mo.; Bellen Woodard, 10, from Leesburg, Va.; and Ian McKenna, 16, from Austin.

Exceptional leadership is what made the ultimate Kid of the Year, 15-year-old scientist and inventor Gitanjali Rao, stand out. Rao not only researches scientific tools such as artificial intelligence and carbon nanotube sensor technology and applies them to problems she sees in everyday life, like cyberbullying and water contamination. She also shows other kids how to tap into their curiosity, aspiring to create a generation of innovators.

Each of this year’s five finalists will be designated a TIME for Kids Kid Reporter, given opportunities to contribute to TIME, and will receive a cash prize from ViacomCBS, Nickelodeon’s owner.

“I really hope the work that all of these kids are doing identifies innovation as a necessity and not something that’s a choice anymore,” Rao tells Angelina Jolie in an interview for TIME. “I hope I can be a small part of that.”

Just 1.4 Million People of Any Age Watched CBS’ ‘Kid of the Year’ Airing

Special ran on some ViacomCBS cable channels earlier this month

Very few kids and adults tuned in to watch CBS’ airing of the “Kid of the Year” special on Monday, when “The Bachelorette” led ABC to a very easy primetime win.

“Kid of the Year” ran across some ViacomCBS cable channels earlier this month, but its 0.2 rating/1 share and 1.4 million total-viewer tally last night were still pretty soft.

Gitanjali Rao was named Kid of the Year for 2020, if you were wondering. Rao, pictured above, is a 15-year-old scientist and inventor from Colorado, according to the Time magazine and Nickelodeon competition (of sorts, they’re still just kids).

ABC was first in ratings with a 0.9 rating/5 share in the advertiser-coveted 18-49 demographic and in total viewers with an average of 4 million, according to preliminary numbers. “The Bachelorette” from 8 p.m. to 10 p.m. averaged a 1.2/7 and 4.9 million viewers. The broadcast channel, which carried “Monday Night Football” in the Pittsburgh and Cincinnati markets, then re-aired “CMA Country Christmas” at 10 p.m.

CBS, NBC and Univision tied for second in ratings, each with a 0.3/2. CBS was second in total viewers with 2.6 million, NBC was third with 1.4 million and Univision was fourth with 1.2 million.

For CBS, the “Kid of the Year” special, which was hosted by Comedy Central’s “Daily Show” host Trevor Noah, ran from 9-10 p.m., sandwiched between reruns.

NBC merely re-aired its “Grinch” musical and a “Weakest Link” repeat. Neither had much of an impact.

Fox and Telemundo tied for fifth in ratings, both with a 0.2/1. Fox was fifth in total viewers with 1.1 million, Telemundo was sixth with 891,000 viewers.

For Fox, “Next” at 8 p.m. had a 0.2/1 and 1.2 million viewers. An episode of “Cosmos: Possible Worlds” at 9 p.m. got a 0.2/1 and 913,000 viewers.

The CW was seventh in ratings with a 0.1/1 and in viewers with 697,000. Following a re-airing of”Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer,” the “Greatest Holiday Commercials Countdown” at 9 p.m. had a 0.1/1 and 702,000 viewers.

TIME names 15-year-old scientist and inventor Gitanjali Rao it's first ever Kid of the Year

Time magazine has selected 15-year-old scientist and inventor Gitanjali Rao as its first-ever Kid of the Year.

The magazine has named a Person of the Year for 92 years and in 2019, Greta Thunberg became the youngest person to ever receive the honor. Before Thunberg, the youngest recipient was 25-year-old Charles Lindbergh in 1927. 

This year, Time partnered with Nickelodeon to search social media and school districts across the country to find the most influential kid of 2020.

The list was narrowed down from 5,000 young Americans to five finalists who will each receive a cash prize and be given a chance to contribute to the magazine. The short list includes artist Tyler Gordon, 14, designer and activist Jordan Reeves, 14, world’s first crayon activist Bellen Woodard, 10, and youth hunger activist Ian McKenna, 16.

2019 Person of the Year: Time names teen climate change activist Greta Thunberg

“Small steps can lead to big change,” TIME for Kids editor Andrea Delbanco said in a statement. “These are everyday kids making change in their communities in a fun and accessible—but very impactful—way.”

Rao told Angelina Jolie in an interview for Time she was ten years old when she became interested in carbon nanotube sensor technology, molecules which can detect chemicals in water. At age 11, she won the Young Scientist Challenge for creating a device that can detect lead in drinking water with the help of a mobile app. Last year, she was named to Forbes 30 under 30 list.

She's also developed an app and Chrome extension called Kindly which uses artificial-intelligence technology to detect cyberbullying at an early stage, she told Time. 

Rao said she has developed an interest in genetics and is working on a way to detect bio-contaminants like parasites in water and a product to diagnose prescription-­opioid addiction early on.

She told the magazine she has also partnered with rural schools, STEM organizations and museums around the world to run innovation workshops to help young students develop their own inventions. She said she's mentored more than 30,000 students.

"My goal has really shifted not only from creating my own devices to solve the world’s problems, but inspiring others to do the same as well," she said. "Because, from personal experience, it’s not easy when you don’t see anyone else like you."

Time Magazine, Nickelodeon reveals first-ever ‘Kid of the Year’

(CBS) — A Colorado teenager has been named the first-ever “Kid of the Year.”  Time Magazine and Nickelodeon gave Gitanjali Rao the honor. CBS’ Nancy Chen caught up with her.

The 15-year-old is a scientist and inventor who has tackled issues from water pollution to cyberbullying.  

Gitanjali Rao’s insatiable curiosity has landed her on the cover of Time as the magazine’s first-ever “Kid of the Year.”

“This is such a great point in my journey.  So beyond exciting, unlike anything I could have ever imagined,” says Rao. 

The 15-year-old beat out more than five thousand other kids for her extraordinary accomplishments.

She caught the attention of CBS News 3 years ago after winning a national science competition. 

Adriana Diaz visited Rao at her home outside Denver and witnessed first-hand her prize-winning invention that detects lead levels in water within seconds.

She created her device after closely following the flint water crisis.

Rao has also developed apps to identify cyberbullying and opioid addiction.

But Time Magazine and Nickelodeon pointed specifically to Rao’s leadership skills.

Even while being a full-time student, she runs workshops and has inspired more 33-thousand people around the world.

“There are students who do want to make a positive impact, they just don’t know where to start  and I want to give them that starting point, that boost of encouragement,” says Rao.

As for what’s next, she says more curiosity about anything and everything and finding new ways to make the world a better place.

Gitanjali will appear on the cover of Time’s weekly edition that hits newsstands Friday.  She’ll also be on a Nickelodeon special tomorrow night.

Colorado Proud: Lone Tree girl named Time magazine’s first-ever Kid of the Year

Gitanjali Rao chosen from a field of more than 5,000

A 15-year-old Lone Tree girl has been named Time magazine’s first-ever Kid of the Year for 2020.

Gitanjali Rao, a young scientist and inventor, was selected from a field of more than 5,000 nominees to be named Time’s Kid of the Year.

“I was beyond surprised,” Gitanjali said Thursday afternoon in a phone interview. “Just the idea…it’s something you dream about, but something you don’t expect at all.”

Gitanjali, in a zoom interview with actor and activist Angelina Jolie announcing the award, covered a wide-range of topics, from water pollution, to opioid addiction to cyber bullying. Gitanjali has created an app to combat cyber bullying.

“She is super cool,” Gitanjali said of Jolie. “Her activism is beyond inspiring.”

Gitanjali, in 2017, earned the title of “America’s Top Young Scientist” while attending STEM School Highlands Ranch. At that time, Gitanjali won the award for inventing a device named Tethys, after the Greek goddess of fresh water, and entering it into the Discovery Education 3M Young Scientist Challenge. She told The Denver Post she entered the contest, in part, looking for a solution to the Flint, Mich., water crisis.

“Everyone should know what is in their water and everyone should have access to clean water,” she said on Thursday.

Gitanjali is now a sophomore at the STEM School. She attends virtually because of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

“It is obviously such a tragedy, so many people are being impacted in a negative way” by the pandemic, she said. At the same time, response to COVID-19 is driving “leaps in technology on literally every platform.”


Gitanjali isn’t quite positive about where her future education and career may take her. “I change my mind everyday,” she said. Perhaps, she’ll pursue biotechnology and product development. “I know I will continue to create positive change in the world and make a difference, hopefully.”

A broadcast special on the Kid of the Year will air on Nickelodeon on Friday.

From NPR:

'Time' Names Its Kid Of The Year: Water-Testing Scientist Gitanjali Rao

Gitanjali Rao, a Colorado teenager who invented a mobile device to test for lead in drinking water, is Time's Kid of the Year for 2020. The magazine announced the award Thursday, citing Rao's ability to apply scientific ideas to real-world problems — and her desire to motivate other kids to take up their own causes.

It's just the latest recognition for Rao, 15, who was named last year to the Forbes 30 Under 30 list. She won praise in 2017 after she responded to the Flint, Mich., water crisis by creating a device named Tehys, using carbon nanotube sensors to detect lead in water. The Lone Tree, Colo., native was named America's Top Young Scientist when she was in the seventh grade. She went on to collaborate with scientists in the water industry to try to get the device on the market.

More recently, Rao has developed a phone and Web tool named Kindly, which uses artificial intelligence technology to detect possible early signs of cyberbullying.

"You type in a word or phrase, and it's able to pick it up if it's bullying, and it gives you the option to edit it or send it the way it is," Rao tells Time. "The goal is not to punish. As a teenager, I know teenagers tend to lash out sometimes. Instead, it gives you the chance to rethink what you're saying so that you know what to do next time around."

The debut Kid of the Year award comes from a partnership between Time and Nickelodeon. Rao was chosen in part because of the way she has followed up her technical work with efforts to get other young people to work on solving the problems they see.

"I don't look like your typical scientist. Everything I see on TV is that it's an older, usually white man as a scientist," she told Time. "My goal has really shifted not only from creating my own devices to solve the world's problems, but inspiring others to do the same as well. Because, from personal experience, it's not easy when you don't see anyone else like you. So I really want to put out that message: If I can do it, you can do it, and anyone can do it."

In one week, Time will select its Person of the Year, which was won last year by another teenager: climate activist Greta Thunberg.

Thunberg was the first person younger than 25 to win the long-running award. Time says the new Kid of the Year recognition is a way to highlight young people who are having a positive influence on their communities and using their innovations to help solve problems. Five finalists were selected from more than 5,000 candidates between 8 and 16 years old. A committee of kids then made the final choice, along with comedian Trevor Noah.

Each of the finalists will get a cash prize from Viacom, Nickelodeon's owner, as well as appearing with Noah on an upcoming TV special. The candidates are responsible for a wide range of positive work, from guiding discussions about racial injustice to growing food for the needy and making toys that all kids can enjoy, regardless of their abilities.

The other finalists, who are also profiled in the Time article, include Tyler Gordon, 14, from San Jose, Calif.; Jordan Reeves, 14, from Columbia, Mo.; Bellen Woodard, 10, from Leesburg, Va.; and Ian McKenna, 16, from Austin, Texas.

San Jose teen artist wows Kamala Harris, wins national acclaim

Tyler Gordon, 14, is among the finalists for Time magazine’s first-ever Kid of the Year honors

(Nickelodeon) San Jose teen Tyler Gordon has become a whiz with the paint brush.

A San Jose teen artist who recently won raves from Kamala Harris for a portrait he painted of the vice president-elect is now earning national acclaim.

Tyler Gordon, 14, was named a Top 5 finalist for Time magazine’s first-ever Kid of the Year honor and will be among the talented youngsters featured in a Nickelodeon television special Friday night, Dec. 4.

“I feel really grateful that, out of the thousands of kids who were considered, I made it this far.” Gordon said Thursday. “And I’m grateful for my family for helping me along the way.”

Time, which has named a Person of the Year for 92 years, decided now was a good time to honor a youth, as well. The magazine partnered with Nickelodeon on a nationwide search to find the “most influential kid of 2020.” The list was winnowed from more than 5,000 young Americans — ages 8 to 16 — to five finalists, who will appear in the “Kid of the Year” special (7:30 p.m. Friday, Nickelodeon and TV Land) hosted by Trevor Noah.

Time announced on Thursday that Gitanjali Rao, a 15-year-old Colorado scientist and inventor, had earned top honors. All five finalists will receive a cash prize and be given a chance to contribute to the magazine.

Gordon was praised by the selection committee for overcoming major personal challenges and using his art to advocate for anti-bullying and social justice issues, as well as helping children with speech impediments. He was born deaf and underwent a surgery at age 5 that gave him some hearing, but he still speaks with a stutter. He also used a wheelchair for nearly two years after breaking bones in his legs and hips due to a vitamin D deficiency.

Although Gordon, a freshman at William C. Overfelt High School, missed out on the ultimate Time accolade, he has plenty to celebrate these days. Last month, he painted a portrait of Harris and shared it on social media, hoping the incoming vice president would see it. Chelsea Clinton and San Jose Mayor Sam Liccardo were among the Twitter users who helped to spread Gordon’s message.

On the day before Thanksgiving, Gordon received a phone call from Harris, who told him, “I’m overwhelmed with the magnificence of your artistry. You really have a gift. … I was so touched to see it.”

“I was in complete shock,” Gordon said. “I didn’t really expect her to call me. We had a nice, chill conversation that was cut short only because she was cooking cornbread and the (oven) timer went off.”

Gordon followed that up by painting a portrait of Joe Biden, pointing out that he has a personal connection to both the president-elect and vice president-elect. He admires Harris, an Oakland native, for breaking barriers like he has, and Biden for overcoming a stutter.

“He really inspires me,” Gordon said of Biden. “Even though he has a stutter, he’s not afraid to do public speeches. That gives me more confidence to accept my stutter and slow myself down.”

Meanwhile, the honors keep rolling in. Four of Gordon’s pieces, including the Harris and Biden portraits, are now on display in Los Angeles at the Beverly Center as part of an “Heirs to the Throne” pop-up exhibit featuring work from Black contemporary artists. He has also been awarded with a major assignment from Time that he can’t yet announce.

Considering all his success, it might be difficult to believe that this talented Kid of the Year candidate was bullied so often in elementary school that he barely spoke.

“His escape was to not speak at all; he’d nod his head or point, he was so afraid,” Gordon’s mother, Nicole Kindle, told Nickelodeon.

But at 10, Gordon found his artistic voice. After watching his mom paint, he decided to give it a try and won first place in a school art contest. In the years since, he has painted more than 500 portraits, mostly of Black icons who inspire him.

“Sometimes I can’t talk and get words out, so I speak through my art,” Gordon said.

A big break came in 2018, when his portrait of Kevin Durant, then with the Golden State Warriors, went viral and caught the eye of Durant’s mother, Wanda, who bought it for $300. Celebrities then started calling on him. Among the stars Gordon has painted and met are Janet Jackson, Kevin Hart, Jennifer Lopez and Alex Rodriguez.

In 2019, a portrait of the Central Park Five fetched more than $100,000 at auction, and he won a 2020 Global Child Prodigy Award.

This past summer, in the wake of George Floyd’s death, Gordon used his canvas to raise awareness about victims of police brutality. Looking to the future, he would “love to attend NYU, open my personal gallery and have my art all over the world.” Oh, and he’d like to have a presidential portrait hanging in the White House some day.

Despite all the starry-eyed attention, Kindle insists that Gordon, the youngest of five kids, remains grounded.

“He still gets in trouble for a messy room and not making his bed. … He still goes crazy for Skittles and Pop-Tarts,” she said. “And he still does his painting with cheap acrylics from Walmart.”

Colorado student, scientist named Time’s ‘Kid of the Year’

ONE TREE, COLO.

A 15-year-old Colorado high school student and young scientist who has used artificial intelligence and created apps to tackle contaminated drinking water, cyberbullying, opioid addiction and other social problems has been named Time Magazine's first-ever “Kid of the Year."

Gitanjali Rao, a sophomore at STEM School Highlands Ranch in suburban Denver who lives in the city of Lone Tree, was selected from more than 5,000 nominees in a process that culminated with a finalists' committee of children, Time for Kids reporters and comedian Trevor Noah.

Rao told The Associated Press in a Zoom interview from her home Friday that the prize is "nothing that I could have ever imagined. And I’m so grateful and just so excited that we’re really taking a look at the upcoming generation and our generation, since the future is in our hands.”

Time said in a statement that, along with Nickelodeon, it wanted to recognize “the rising leaders of America's youngest generation” in making the award. For 92 years, Time has presented a “Person of the Year,” and the youngest ever was Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg, who was 16 when she graced the magazine's cover last year.

Time said Rao stood out for creating a global community of young innovators and inspiring them to pursue their goals. Rao insists that starting out small doesn't matter, as long as you're passionate about it.

Rao's innovating started early. At age 12, she developed a portable device to detect lead in water.

She's created a device called Epione that diagnoses prescription opioid addiction at an early stage. She's also devised an app called Kindly that uses artificial intelligence to help prevent cyberbullying. It allows teens to type in a word or phrase to find out if the words they’re using are bullying and lets them decide to edit what they’re sending or to proceed.

“And currently, I’m looking back at water, looking at moving things like parasitic compounds in water and how we can detect for that,” Rao said after a day's remote schooling.

She told actress, activist and Time contributing editor Angelina Jolie in a Zoom interview that her science pursuits started early as a way to improve social conditions. The drinking water crisis in Flint, Michigan, inspired her work to develop a way to detect contaminants and send those results to a mobile phone, she said.

“I was like 10 when I told my parents that I wanted to research carbon nanotube sensor technology at the Denver Water quality research lab, and my mom was like, “A what?” Rao told Jolie. She said that work “is going to be in our generation's hands pretty soon. So if no one else is gonna do it, I'm gonna do it.”

The sensor technology involves molecules of carbon atoms that can detect chemical changes, including chemicals in water.

Rao has partnered with rural schools; museums; science, technology, engineering and mathematics organizations; and other institutions to run innovation workshops for thousands of other students.

In a world where science is increasingly questioned or challenged, Rao insisted that its pursuit is an essential act of kindness, the best way that a younger generation can better the world. Science and technology are being employed as never before to tackle the coronavirus pandemic, global warming and a host of other issues, she noted.

“We have science in everything we’re involved in, and I think that’s the biggest thing to put out there, that science is cool, innovating is cool, and anybody can be an innovator,” Rao said. “Anybody can do science.”

Time was planning a Kid of the Year broadcast special at 7:30 p.m. EST (5:30 p.m. MST) on Nickelodeon.

Evergreen Mill Elem. student named 'Kid of the Year' finalist

Nine-year-old Bellen Woodard, a fifth-grader at Leesburg's Evergreen Mill Elementary School, has been named one of five finalists for the Nickelodeon/Time Magazine Kid of the Year Award.

After hearing fellow students commonly refer to peach-colored crayons as "skin-colored," Bellen, who is Black, created the More than Peach Project, which creates — and aims to normalize the use of — differently colored crayons that represent diverse skin tones.

"There's different types of ways to be a leader. I do it by making sure no one feels left out," Bellen said in a video announcing her placement as a finalist.

More than Peach has achieved national recognition since its creation, leading Nickelodeon and Time to recognize Bellen as one of a group of "extraordinary young leaders who are making a positive impact in their communities," according to Loudoun County Public Schools.

"It feels more like a movement than a project, because a project would be something that's done one time," Bellen said. "A movement means you keep on moving forward."

Olympic gymnast Simone Biles delivered an elated Bellen the news of her selection as a finalist, which includes a $5,000 grant to further her nonprofit's mission, as well as the opportunity to serve as a yearlong correspondent for Time for Kids.

"I wish, whenever I was younger, I could be your classmate and have your palette," Biles told Bellen. "I think it's beautiful, and what you're doing is amazing."

Atop her Kid of the Year honor, Bellen was also one of three honorees at the Anti-Defamation League's Concert Against Hate in Washington, D.C., on Saturday.

Gitanjali Rao Is Time Magazine’s First "Kid Of The Year"

Gitanjali Rao uses technology to tackle social issues

Most teenagers are still trying to find their passion and purpose in life. However, not Gitanjali Rao. The 15-year-old sophomore at STEM School Highlands Ranch in Douglas County, Colorado, has been coming up with innovative solutions to worldwide problems since she was ten. It is, therefore, not surprising that the youngster was selected from 5,000 equally impressive nominees — ages 8 to 16 — for TIME Magazine’s first-ever "Kid of the Year."

"I am so humbled and so grateful for this opportunity," Rao told CBSN, following the December 2, 2020 announcement. "It's so honoring and humbling to be among so many fantastic people who have appeared on the cover of the Time magazine, but along with that, just to be among the fantastic 'Kid of the Year' finalists as well."

In addition to the accolade, Rao and this year's four finalists Tyler Gordon, 14, Jordan Reeves, 14, Bellen Woodard, 10, and Ian McKenna, 16, — will also receive a cash prize from Time Magazines' partner Nickelodeon.

Rao won the Young Scientist Challenge in 2017 for her prototype that helps determine lead levels in water

The young girl, who knew she wanted to bring change and positivity to her community since 3rd grade, was just ten-years-old when she heard about the lead-tainted water in Flint, Michigan, in 2015. After spending two months researching how the area's drinking water became contaminated, Rao began designing a device that used carbon nanotube sensors to instantly detect lead in water. Called Tethys, after the titan goddess of freshwater, it attaches to a cellphone and informs the resident via an app if their drinking water contains traces of the harmful metal. The prototype earned her the 3M Young scientist Challenge in 2017 and a spot in the Forbes’ 30 under 30 list in 2019. The budding entrepreneur is currently working with scientists and medical professionals at the Denver Water Facility to test Tethys' potential and hopes the device will be ready for commercial use by 2022.

In 2019, Rao took on another social issue — opioid addiction. Her app, called Epione, which won the “Health” Pillar Prize at the TCS Ignite Innovation Student Challenge in May 2019, is designed to catch drug addiction in young adults before its too late. “There were so many teens getting into prescription opioids, and before anybody knew about it, it was too late to do anything about it,” Rao said. “I wanted to come up with a way to diagnose prescription opioid addiction at an early stage so you can take action earlier.”

More recently, the teenager has created an app called Kindly to help prevent cyberbullying. “I started to hard-code in some words that could be considered bullying, and then my engine took those words and identified words that are similar. You type in a word or phrase, and it’s able to pick it up if it’s bullying, and it gives you the option to edit it or send it the way it is.” Rao told actress, activist, and Time contributing editor Angelina Jolie in a Zoom interview. “The goal is not to punish. As a teenager, I know teenagers tend to lash out sometimes. Instead, it gives you the chance to rethink what you're saying so that you know what to do next time around."

When not working on improving the world, Rao likes to bake, play the piano, and mentor youngsters in STEM. Her advice to aspiring entrepreneurs? “If I can do it, you can do it, and anyone can do it.”

Congratulations Gitanjali Rao!

Chester Springs student is Nickelodeon's 'Kid of the Year' finalist

Eighth-grader Ronak Suchindra, a member of the Clover Rovers 4-H Robotics Club in Chester County, was one of 20 finalists selected from 5,000 nominees in the first-ever “Kid of the Year” contest presented by Nickelodeon, TIME and TIME for Kids this year.

According to Nickelodeon, “Kid of the Year” is a multiplatform initiative recognizing extraordinary young leaders who are making a positive impact in their communities.

Suchindra, of Chester Springs, was selected for his work with his nonprofit organization, Kids Connect, a learning platform he developed during the pandemic. Using Zoom, Kids Connect allows older kids to teach younger children various skills, such as coding, math, chess and origami.

Since its creation in March, Kids Connect has racked up more than 3,500 interaction hours with 800 students attending 20 different courses. Youth have joined from several states and even other countries.

Suchindra is no stranger to teaching. In previous years, he has spent his summers exploring robotics and coding with other kids in his neighborhood. He said not being able to do that this summer was part of the inspiration behind Kids Connect.

“I noticed many kids weren’t getting enough activities and other enrichment during the pandemic,” said Suchindra. “I also saw other kids helping in their communities, and I wanted to do something to help kids in my community. Our mission is to spread the love of learning to every corner of the world.”

Suchindra and other youth volunteers with a variety of interests and talents teach classes in the evening after school. He noted that it is not only learning fun and educational skills that can be applied to other areas of life, but also a cool way to connect with kids all over the world.

“I love teaching,” Suchindra said. “I’ve always been passionate about it, and working with kids really motivates me. I want to use the fact that I was a finalist for ‘Kid of the Year’ to reach more kids now that people are becoming more familiar with the organization. My overall goal is to reach out to more kids around the globe and teach them new skills.”

Suchindra is a member of the Clover Rovers 4-H Robotics Club, a program offered through the Chester County office of Penn State Extension. The club competes in robotic competitions around the state. He said being part of the club was another factor that inspired his passion for volunteer work.

“I’ve learned so much about coding and robotics and made so many friends and connections,” he said. “This club is so much fun and I enjoy it a lot.”

Toni Stuetz, 4-H extension educator, has known Suchindra and his family for five years. “Ronak really found his niche in our robotics program,” she said. “He’s been on the team for five years, and he emerged as a leader early on. He’s mature, well-spoken, responsible and conscientious.”

Stuetz said science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) lessons have been a critical part of 4-H’s science focus in recent years. Concepts are coupled with real-world lessons to help youth make connections between agriculture, school, community and work. 4-H STEM programs provide an opportunity to learn through a variety of projects, contests, challenges and clubs. Nearly all 4-H projects offer some sort of STEM programming.

“The kids learn to problem-solve and analyze data,” said Stuetz, who added that about half of the counties in Pennsylvania have a 4-H robotics program. “They also get experience with computer coding, computer-aided design, construction work and even improve their math skills. It’s a hands-on opportunity for the kids to learn skills they can take into other parts of their lives and a chance for some career exploration.”

Administered in Pennsylvania by Penn State Extension, 4-H is a community of more than 6 million young people across America learning leadership, citizenship and life skills. More information about 4-H can be found online at extension.psu.edu/4-H.

Lionville Student Among Finalists For Nickelodeon Kid-Of-Year

Nickelodeon's Kid-Of-The-Year shortlist named a Lionville Middle School 8th grader to its list of 20 finalists for connecting kids.

CHESTER SPRINGS, PA — Five thousand kids applied to be named Nickelodeon's Kid of the Year, and when the list was trimmed down to 20, Ronak Suchindra of Chester Springs was still there.

The Lionville Middle School eighth-grader stood out for his work starting up a nonprofit named Kids Connect as the pandemic closed schools last March.

"It was about getting kids involved," Suchindra said. He saw a problem arising, that kids were home, not seeing each other, not connecting, so he set about finding a way to solve the problem. He said he asked, "What am I going to do to get kids involved who are sitting at home, disconnected?"

Kids Connect brings online workshops free to kids. It's a network of volunteers, he said, "a way to gather friends with cool talents and put them to work." Kids from all over the world are participating, he said.

It grew out of an earlier capstone project at school, given in place of a midterm. But, his idea was just bigger than that. He's corralled friends who are able to teach what they know. They put together video workshops and kids can join in. The fun and educational workshops are being picked up by schools, youth groups, and libraries, he said. "People started telling people," Suchindra explained.

"Through our first few classes, we received some excellent feedback. The kids who took part in our classes gave us some great advice which helped me improve Kids Connect's classes," he said.

He advertised the program and created a Facebook page so parents could stay up to date with all of the classes and information.

The workshops have taught origami, coding, games, robotics, and other topics like how to solve a Rubik's Cube. He said coding has been really popular.

So far about 800 kids have attended the Kids Connect workshops. The volunteers helping make it happen have logged around 650 hours, and the workshops themselves add up to about 3,000 hours of interaction.

Suchindra did the nonprofit application process himself but has involved others along the way, whom he said he hopes are awarded for their work. "We also have around 30 youth volunteers who are working constantly to teach their classes to others."

He considers the work a success because the kids in the workshops are "engaged with something to do, and they are learning different subjects in a fun way." He said he found inspiration in Albert Einstein's words, "A crisis creates a new opportunity."

Suchindra said he hopes to keep expanding the programs and involving more kids and volunteers. So far, Kids Connect workshops have seen attendance from the U.S., India, Canada, and Singapore.

Suchindra wants to study aerospace engineering. "I watch movies about colonizing Mars and other planets, and I want to do that," he said. But, he's really very down-to-earth. His interests are in helping people connect, get educated, and to help everyone use their talents.

The final-five list of Nickelodeon's Kid of the Year was named on Monday, and Suchindra wasn't on it. He said he's not disappointed.

"It was really good to make the list of 20," he said. "Our mission is to spread the love of learning to every corner of the world."

Nickelodeon has reportedly renewed Tyler Perry's Young Dylan, the network's popular live-action comedy series starring kid rapper and pint-sized powerhouse Young Dylan, for a second season. Please note that this news, first reported by Cancelled Soon TV, has yet to be confirmed by Nickelodeon or Tyler Perry.


Update (11/10) - The news seems to have been confirmed by ajc, with Young Dylan season two slated to go into production this November!

Update (12/24) -Young Dylan season two will have 14 30-minute episodes, bringing the number of episodes in the series up to 28.

Executive produced, directed and written by Perry, the series follows a family whose world is turned upside down when their nephew, Young Dylan (Dylan Gilmer), an aspiring hip-hop star, moves in unannounced. Michelle Sneed serves as an executive producer, with Will Areu and Mark E. Swinton serving as producers. The series wrapped its first season on Sunday, March 15, 2020 at Tyler Perry Studios in Atlanta, Ga.

In Tyler Perry’s Young Dylan, Dylan’s grandmother Viola (Aloma Wright) realizes that raising her grandson is too much to take on, so she decides to send him to live indefinitely with her affluent son Myles Wilson (Carl Anthony Payne II), his wife Yasmine (Mieko Hillman) and their two kids Rebecca (Celina Smith) and Charlie (Hero Hunter). Suddenly, the Wilson family household needs to adapt as lifestyles clash between rising hip-hop star Young Dylan and his straight-laced cousins. From Dylan giving Charlie, Rebecca, and her best friend Bethany (Jet Miller), lessons in “swag” and street smarts, to learning that even rappers have rules in the Wilson house, the series follows the hilarious hijinks this family faces as they try to get on the same beat.

In the series premiere of Young Dylan, "Imaginary Friends", Young Dylan arrives at his relatives’ home needing a place to live, but his streetwise swagger upends the conservative Wilson household. (#101)

Nickelodeon’s partnership with Perry is part of his long-term pact with ViacomCBS, producing original series for BET Networks (The Oval and Sistas) and other ViacomCBS networks, with exclusive licensing rights on this programming. Additionally, Perry recently announced his joint venture with BET Networks for the new streaming video on demand service BET+. Tyler Perry’s Young Dylan marks Perry’s first kids’ scripted series.

Born and raised in Annapolis, Md., Gilmer is known for his many appearances and performances on The Ellen DeGeneres Show and at NBA All-Star Weekend. Gilmer has an overall talent deal with Telepictures, a subsidiary of Warner Bros. Television, and has previously guest starred on the revival of Nickelodeon’s hit series All That.

Gilmer is represented by Sherry Kayne of The Green Room and Chris Abramson at Felker Toczek Suddleson Abramson.

The production of Tyler Perry’s Young Dylan for Nickelodeon is overseen by Shauna Phelan, Senior Vice President, Live-Action Scripted Content. Brian Banks serves as Nickelodeon’s Executive in Charge of Production for the series.

Tyler Perry’s Young Dylan underscores a key element of Nickelodeon's content strategy, to mine social platforms for the talent that kids love. Nick's new content slate is informed by the network's ongoing research and insights into today's generation of kids, who: are the most diverse generation ever and expect to see themselves authentically represented in media and in the world around them; want to make a positive difference in the world as they grow up; consider social media stars as their top role models, alongside their parents; and increasingly meet their much-desired need for family time by co-viewing entertainment content together.

Tyler Perry’s Young Dylan made its world debut on Nickelodeon in the U.S. on Saturday, February 29, 2020, and has since rolled out onto Nickelodeon channels globally. The series premiere episode reached more than 2.6 million total viewers in six airings over its premiere weekend, making it tthe biggest Live +3 lifts for a series premiere in three years for the network at the time.
