    Go to Appearance->Menu and add what ever categories you want to your main menu. If you don't see them listed, create custom URL menu items, linking to the category URL's.

    These categories are probably hidden because there isn't any posts assigned to them yet. It's just how WordPress work.

    Assign one post to all categories and see if they show up in the menu.

    Your categories don't show is the reason : You dont have posts in them.
    Make a post, and you'll see.
