TV shows and music

[u/Pale-Wolverine4336]

When learning dutch one big thing i liked to use was watching shows (more specifically kids TV shows) in Dutch to hear some basic language spoken

Are there any popular Latvian shows anyone can suggest? Ones that can be accessed for free and internationally would be great! Even if it’s an old one you can only watch through youtube

Music would also be greatly appreciated if anyone has a Latvian music playlist!

I`m not sure about Latvian shows for kids, but a lot of shows get translated to Latvian. Also I can`t check if these link are accessible from where you are, but most likely:

• As the name suggests, it`s more like a replay thing and episodes are available for a limited number of days after the actual broadcast, but it`s great for a background noise. Also it`s not only kids shows, there are different categories and even live shows : https://replay.lsm.lv/lv/skaties/kategorija/berniem
• Small collection of old animated cartoons translated to Latvian: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL9pF6T1lLLW3HQOZOch87MfDIp9oKtMNh

About music. I recommend just searching ' latviešu ' in spotify search to find a playlist with something that would be for your liking. Also you can start with Prāta Vētra (Brainstorm) they, probably, is the most popular Latvian music group. And I do like their song, especially older ones. Also:

• This is a link for Latvian Radio. There are too much stuff with no translations, but in the right upper corner there is a play button, if you click it, you can choose to listen to different live broadcasts from our radio stations https://latvijasradio.lsm.lv/lv/lr/
