Canela Kids Lines Up CoComelon & More

Canela Kids has bolstered its offering through new partnerships with Moonbug Entertainment and Blue Ant Media.

Canela Kids, a section on Canela.TV curated for children ages 2 to 12, now features three new linear channels in Spanish, including Moonbug Kids. The Moonbug offering comprises CoComelon, Blippi, Little Baby Bum, My Magic Pet Morphle and more. It also includes Blippi Wonders and Lellobee City Farm, which are available on a Hispanic-focused platform for the first time.

Love Nature, from Blue Ant Media, allows viewers to see animals in their natural habitat and visit some of the world’s most awe-inspiring landscapes.

Mundo Pequeño is a channel curated for the youngest members of the household (preschool) featuring well-known titles such as Pocoyo, Rainbow Ruby, Robocar Poli and RAGGS.

Canela Kids will launch a stand-alone app later this year.

“Canela Kids is a kid-friendly place for Latino parents to share and celebrate Hispanic culture through a variety of content options 100 percent in Spanish,” said Isabel Rafferty Zavala, co-founder and CEO of Canela Media. “Canela Media’s authentic content supports the growing need and interest from Hispanic parents to share their language and roots with their children.”

“Entertainment is such an important part of a child’s life and it’s our duty to provide wholesome, educational content with positive role models,” added Maggie Salas-Amaro, director of Canela Kids from Canela Media. “With Canela Kids, we are providing our young audiences with some of the best free Spanish-language content available from all over the world, with limited ads both at home and on the go.”

“Being able to bring our content and further expand our reach to U.S. Hispanic and Latin American audiences are a key part of our mission,” said Marta Braun, director of LatAm distribution at Moonbug. “This is particularly relevant for Moonbug, as Spanish is the most watched dubbed language for our content. We are thrilled by Canela Kids’ commitment to friendly and safe content; its focus on Spanish-speaking families makes it the perfect home for a new Moonbug Kids linear channel.”
