Aloha Keiki!

Aloha Keiki!

Children and adults dressed as characters from Disney's Lilo & Stitch, with Stitch costume in the center surrounded by women wearing traditional Hawaiian attire, including flower crowns and skirts. They are smiling and posing outdoors on a cobblestone path.

Aloha and Ia Ora Na, Keiki! We’re so excited to dance with you. Below you will find some fun things to read about, and cool exercises to do at home because we know you’re gonna miss us while you’re away!

Listen to our Keiki Hula playlist!

Watch the video to help you understand the Hawaiian alphabet!

The Hakalama is used to spell Hawaiian words by breaking them down into syllables, for example:

A-lo-ha

Chart displaying the Hawaiian syllabary with labels in English and Hawaiian, showing vowels and consonants with their respective symbols and pronunciation guides.

In Hawai’i, culture, such as music, dance, and historical stories, have been passed down from kūpuna (elders) to keiki (you kids!) through talking.

Think of the start of Moana, when her grandmother tells the children the story of Maui and Te Fiti!

This playlist of videos by ‘Ōiwi TV can teach you about some of Hawai’i’s stories and legends.
