I'm trying to learn egyptian arabic...?
And I would like to incorporate TV shows into my learning.
I've heard it helps.
But, I'm having a very hard time finding anything online.
To be honest, I'd prefer more of a children's show...
I'm afraid i'd get lost quite fast watching an adults show (still a beginner).
As i've said, I'm learning the egyptian version.
Since I'm unsure how other dialects differ from that version, i'd like to
stick with egyptian shows/cartoons.
Anything y'all can recommend would be fantastic.
Thanks!
To clarify: I've purchased Rocket Arabic. It's similar to Rosetta Stone. I've used Rosetta for Spanish and absolutely prefer Rocket Languages.
So, I do have and actual structured learning course.
But, I wanted something more entertaining to add so I don't get bored.

Well, The Arabic isn't a hard language as it appears, but its different culture. In our website we've tried to mix the learning & fun in the most simple way that you can take it with you anywhere/anytime/any-device.
that came after long time of studying Arabic and teaching arabic to different people from different cultures and backgrounds. we believe that learning a language is matter of sense, matter of feeling the words more than understanding it ! in so many schools/universities they teach the language "Especially arabic" separately from the Culture itself, So, you can see/meet people who studied Arabic for 4-5 years and when they come to Egypt/or any arab-speaking-country they start studying from the beginning !
and this what we're trying to avoid by using Live Videos from Egypt -we made ourselves-, Blog that contains daily cartoons and news from different sources and their explanation easily in addition to our social network pages and a one-on-one Skype lessons !
we believe in E-learning.

When my teacher was going over the Egyptian dialect, she showed us a lot of 3alam simsim, which is the Egyptian Sesame Street show. There are a good number of episodes and episode snippets available on youtube.
