RTVE Unveils Kids’ Channel Clan for America

MADRID: RTVE has revealed its new HD children’s channel, Clan for America, which is meant to bring the best programming and values from Spain’s Clan to the Americas.

Clan for America features a philosophy that promotes friendship, respect for the environment and creativity. The network will feature recent in-house productions or co-productions with leading indie producers from Europe, as well as acquisitions of Spanish productions. It is aimed at young viewers up to the age of 12, with a special focus on the 2-to-4 and 4-to-7 demos.

According to a statement from RTVE, Clan for America’s goal is “to be where the kids are, but with supervision; to say what children say, but judiciously; and to dream what children dream, but with intelligence.” The channel is scheduled to hit the airwaves in the second quarter of 2017.
