The originals Boo & Me and Jass Time! will also be available through the channel, which will broadcast 24/7 across On Telecom’s basic package.

Following our successful launch in Greece last year with Hellenic Telecommunications Organization, OTE, we are delighted to expand our presence with On Telecoms. It really understands our commitment to edutainment and we feel confident that it is the right partner to carry KidsCo’s message.”
