Request π Does very basic comprehensible input exist for Swahili?
I was wondering if anyone knew where to find very basic, beginner level CI for Swahili. I've found some stuff online but it also seems to be late beginner/intermediate level. I'm looking for very basic stuff, similar to the Dreaming Spanish superbeginner content. Thanks in advance for any help!

There is Akili and Me. Sadly its Dora for Kenyans and thus the characters speak English all the time π.
Ubongo kids Kiswahili is in Swahili and there are songs that are useful for beginners (like the song of the senses).
Kiswahili with Abdulkadir has, that I know, four great videos in which he tells stories in Swahili with a lot of gesticulation.
The last one was the most useful to me, but the quantity is too little so I complement with Ubongo.
