NPO Zappelin

NPO Zappelin is a Dutch television program block for younger children that launched as Z@ppelin in September 2000.

On 4 September 2005, Z@ppelin became a channel for children aged 2–6 years.

[2] The @ in the name of the channel was dropped on 10 September 2012.

The reason for this change is to make the channels and its programmes more recognisable.

It is also part of the 24-hour children's channel NPO Zappelin Extra.
