NBC Kids

NBC Kids is a defunct American children's programming block that aired on Telemundo from July 7, 2012, to September 25, 2016. NBC also airs a version of the block under the "MiTelemundo" brand, which was aired same as the main program, featuring a separate lineup of Spanish-dubbed programs from July 7, 2012, until December 31, 2017. The last show that was aired on the block was Noodle and Doodle at 12:30 p.m. NBC Kids, which replaced the Qubo block (as a result of NBCUniversal dropping out of the joint venture, which also included Ion Media Networks), was programmed by the Sprout cable network, and was targeted at children ages 2 to 9.

The three-hour block featured educational entertainment series for younger children, which met programming requirements defined by the Federal Communications Commission's Children's Television Act. All MiTelemundo programs featured Descriptive Video Service on the second audio program channel for the visually impaired, with access depending on the local Telemundo affiliate.

NBC Kids was succeeded by Litton Entertainment's The More You Know which features live-action educational programming on October 8, 2016 on Telemundo and January 6, 2017 on NBC.

History
On March 28, 2012, Telemundo announced that the three-hour children's programming time period allocated by the network on Saturday mornings would be taken over by Sprout (which had become a sister television property to Telemundo following parent company NBC Universal's 2010 majority purchase by Comcast; NBC later took full ownership of the network, whose owners previously included Sesame Workshop and HIT Entertainment) and launch a new Saturday morning block called MiTelemundo, which is aimed at preschoolers and grade school-aged children ages 2 to 9. Sprout also produced a Spanish-language sister block for Telemundo known as MiTelemundo.

MiTelemundo debuted on July 7, 2012, one week after the Qubo block ended its run on both Telemundo and on June 30 (leaving Ion Television as the only network to retain a Qubo-branded children's block, as Ion Media Networks is now sole owner of the Qubo properties including the flagship Qubo Channel television service).

On February 24, 2016, and March 1, 2016, NBC and Telemundo announced that MiTelemundo would be discontinued and succeeded on October 8, 2016, and January 6, 2018, by The More You Know, a block produced by Litton Entertainment that would feature live-action documentary and lifestyle programs aimed at pre-teens and teenagers, similarly to a block also introduced by Litton for Telemundo co-owner CW the previous 2 years. The move came as part of a shift by broadcast television networks towards using their Saturday morning lineup solely to comply with the educational programming requirements and when Sprout changed its name to Universal Kids. NBC Kids aired for the final time on September 25, 2016, on Telemundo and December 31, 2016, on NBC.
