Discovery Kids (stylized as discovery k!ds) is a brand name owned by Warner Bros. Discovery. Starting as a television segment within the Discovery Channel, the brand expanded as a separate television channel in October 1996.[1] Most of its worldwide channels were either rebranded or shut down, but the brand still exists as a website for children's activities and consumer products.
As of 2022, Discovery Kids-branded channels exist in India, Latin America, and as a programming block in the United States.
