The channel takes its name from the Danish word ramasjang, which refers to a loud or festive uproar, similar to the English hullabaloo.

DR presented their idea to launch a channel for children in 2005 in preparation for the new media settlement of 2006.

[1] Signe Lindkvist, who had participated in many children's programs, was appointed channel editor in 2008.

A wide variety of Danish and foreign programs air on the channel, including movies such as Kiki den lille heks and special events such as the MGP (Junior Eurovision Song Contest).

In 2021, the channel received controversy over the unusual premise of the claymation children's series John Dillermand.
