Sky Kids Adds On-Demand Educational Programming to Help Children Learn at Home

Local children, when not worried about the end of the world, are enjoying the good life with their feet at home due to the coronavirus pandemic when they would otherwise be at school. But it shouldn't just be fun and games! Sky TV wants to help parents who are struggling to regain a bit of focus in the classroom by putting out a wealth of educational content to stream through its selection of ``Sky Kids'' shows. The ``Learning from Home'' collection is now available in three program age groups: Foundation: Early Childhood - Under 5s
Featured content includes Numberblocks that focuses on numerical arithmetic, Labuntina for educational songs, as well as shows like Ryan's Mystery Playdate, Rusty Rivets, and Octonauts. Key stage 1 - 5-7 years
Featured content includes natural history and science shows like Ocean Rescue: Dive In & Do It and Maddie's Do You Know? along with dance tutorials from Kidz Bop and Sky Sports Kids Fit in 5. Key Stage 2 - 8-11 years
Featured content includes news and fact shows like Braydon Meets, plus Horrible Stories and Operation Ouch. A special episode of the weekly news program FYI dedicated to the coronavirus will be available from March 28.

... and there are also fun things

When the kids started and worked, Sky also increased the amount of content to keep the kids entertained. Paddington's adventures turn to Nick Jr, while Where's Wally? DreamWorks Animation will also test children's perception skills. New Moominvalley episodes will be out in time for Easter, as well as a new heaven original, Bad Nature, a humorous look at the less than pleasant side of the animal kingdom. Sky Kids is already made up of 11 children's channels and offers approximately 5,000 episodes of on-demand content for children under 12, with favorites such as Mr Bean, Peppa Pig, Henry Danger and Morph. There's also a kids' app that also offers an interactive art studio and over 80 educational games.
