Ready to Play is the ninth era of Nick Jr. It debuted on May 21, 2018 on both the block and channel, replacing The Smart Place to Play. It wa replaced by Splat Zone Jr. on July 5, 2023 on the block and September 4, 2023 on the channel. PAW Patrol was the first show to air under the brand on the block. On the channel...we're not sure, yet.
New Naming Scheme[]
When you have a channel and block that go by the same name, especially preschoolers will get confused since there is two of them. Nick Jr. for this era decided to slightly change the name for the block and channel so preschoolers can tell them apart. The block is referred to as "Nick Jr. on Nick" because it's Nick Jr. on Nick! The channel is referred to as the "Nick Jr. channel". The screen bugs for each were also changed to have their respective surnames. Although, it wasn't enough. It didn't last long for Nick Jr. on Nick, as they returned it simply being called after its network-"Nick". The block used the screen bug with only "Nick" on November 12, 2018 throughout the era. However, bumpers used still use the "Nick Jr." name with no change. ? Well, at least kids will know they are watching Nick Jr. But the Nick Jr. channel was able to keep its surname for the era's entirety.
Bumpers, Idents, and Promos[]
The bumpers take place in an open area where everything is one color (similar to the Weekday Mornings on Nick: the Smart Place to Play bumpers), except the characters, whether they are real life kids, or Nick Jr. characters. They play around the area like a playground and interact with items. Or, they could be at home, daring to go on their next adventure.
Character specific BTTS bumpers that only aired on the block feature live action characters enter the world of Nick jr. or the other way around!
The promos are unique, having a different branding. But if that promo is about an event that aired on the block and the promo is streamed on the channel, "You're watching Nick Jr." voice appears, telling the viewer they are watching the Nick Jr. channel and the promo is about something on the Nick Jr. block. She could say something like "You're watching Nick Jr. Check out what's happening ____ over on Nick." or "You're watching Nick Jr. Here's something really big happening ____ over on Nick.
Here are some words that fill in the blanks, depending how long until the event.
