Celebrate World Children’s Day With the Best of Kids’ Entertainment!

This month we celebrate World Children’s Day (20 November); a day dedicated to all the little humans that make our lives worth living. Started in 1954, World Children’s Day encourages us to create a space where we prioritise the wellbeing of kids by coming together and rejoicing in all the wonderful moments that young ones bring to the table.

To show kids – and parents – just how important they are to us, DStv has launched a brand-new kids pop-up channel that’s packed with entertaining and educational content. ZooMoo is available until 31 March 2021 on Premium, Compact Plus and Compact packages on DStv Channel 314. This pop-up channel is dedicated to the environment, conservation, education, and aims to foster a lifelong love of nature. 

Kids entertainment isn’t what it used to be – in fact, it’s so much better than when we were kids. With captivating storylines and a few lessons to be learnt along the way, let’s take a look at some of the best children’s shows currently on DStv.
