Sky Kids is a British and Irish children's pay television channel owned and operated by the Sky Group, a subsidiary of Comcast and launched on 13 February 2023[1][2] as the first in-house Sky-branded children's network.

[3] The Children's Channel was eventually taken up by BSB after a failed attempt to acquire a 50% stake in TCC, Sky launched Fox Kids in 1996.

A stake in the channel, which later rebranded in 2004 as Jetix, eventually reduced over time until it was fully acquired by The Walt Disney Company, who renamed the channel Disney XD in 2009.

[4] On 31 October 2022, Sky sold their full stake in Nickelodeon UK Ltd. to Paramount Networks UK & Australia; the Nickelodeon agreement had contained a non-compete clause that otherwise restricted Sky and Comcast from launching a children's television network while still holding a stake in Nickelodeon UK Ltd.[5] On 22 November 2022, Sky UK announced the launch of a linear and commercial-free Sky Kids channel in February the following year.

These are complemented by acquired programming from Comcast-owned DreamWorks Animation including Trolls: TrollsTopia, Where's Wally?, and Madagascar: A Little Wild and existing content commissioned for Sky such as MC Grammar: Wonder Raps and The Brilliant World of Tom Gates.
