Jake and the Never Land Pirates Holiday Episodes
Sunday, November 13, 2011 Posted by BusyWorkingMama
Since its launch this past February, Disney Junior continues to grow and break all previous records for Disney Channel's preschool programming! Anchored by hit series, Jake and the Never Land Pirates, cable's #1 series for Boys 2-5 since its launch and on track to be Disney Channel's #1 preschool series ever, Disney Junior continues to soar. The show currently is among one of the most co-viewed preschool series, with 45% of moms watching with their preschooler.
A music-filled interactive treasure hunt, Jake and the Never Land Pirates introduces a crew of kid pirates – leader Jake and pals Izzy and Cubby – and follows their Never Land adventures as they work to outwit two infamous characters, the one and only Captain Hook and Mr. Smee, from Disney's classic "Peter Pan." Along the way, they model teamwork, problem-solving and physical activity, earning gold doubloons as they conquer a variety of tasks. The series features original "pirate rock" music performed by Sharky and Bones of The Never Land Pirate Band.
Coming up next for Jake and the Never Land Pirates is a December holiday episode, to be followed in January by the debut of the first-ever 45-minute series special and season two of the series.
In the holiday episode of Jake and the Never Land Pirates, titled It's A Winter Never Land! / Hook On Ice, Jake, Izzy and Cubby awake to find that Peter Pan has left the crew some presents and a tree to celebrate Winter Treasure Day, and Captain Hook invites Jake and the crew on a winter treasure hunt. The episode premieres FRIDAY, DECEMBER 2 (8:30-9:00 a.m., ET/PT) on Disney Channel.
Moms have spoken and Disney Junior is listening... We talk to thousands of parents of 2-7 year olds every year. We've heard from moms that they want more Disney programming for their younger children made available throughout the day, especially during those later afternoon/early evening hours when they need it most while making dinner and unwinding from the day. The result – a brand new standalone 24-hour Disney Junior channel will launch in early 2012. (The current Disney Junior programming block, which launched in February 2011 on Disney Channel, airs weekdays from 4:00 a.m.-2:00 p.m., ET/PT and weekends from 4:00–9:00 a.m., ET/PT.)

Lily has been a fan of Jake and the Never Land Pirates for a long while now. I personally appreciate that the show is child-friendly and focuses on good actions and morals. We really enjoyed the DVD and episodes! The DVD is a staple in the car for longer trips and it is cute to hear Lily talk to Jake with a "Lily, Ahoy!"
