About Anaana’s Tent

It’s summertime in the Arctic, and host Rita Claire decides to set up camp in her mother’s tent. With the help of her old husky, Qimmiq, and a cast of special friends, Rita Claire sings songs, plays games, reads stories and learns new words in Inuktitut. Special guests, including Kathleen Merritt, Looee Arreak, Susan Aglukark, and Northern Haze, drop by to visit.

Anaana’s Tent is an entertaining and educational preschool TV series that prepares children for kindergarten. Using a mixture of live-action, puppetry and animated segments, this delightful series is filled with Northern stories and culture while teaching Inuit values like kindness, friendship, patience and environmental stewardship.
