Little Disney

Little Disney (formerly called Playhouse Disney and Disney Junior) was a children's television channel in Kuboia owned by The Walt Disney Company. Aimed at children aged ten and under, it broadcast a mixture of Disney-produced content as well as its own original programming. The channel launched as a block on Disney Channel Kuboia on 14th June, 1999 before launching as its own channel on 13th May, 2002. It was among one of the last channels worldwide to maintain the Playhouse Disney logo, using it until April 2013 when it rebranded as Disney Junior - most versions had adapted the latter name almost two years earlier.

Little Disney ended its run on 27th December, 2020 at 10:00p.m. - a majority of its content has since been transferred over to streaming service Disney+.

As Playhouse Disney (1999-2013)
Little Disney had its origins as Playhouse Disney, which itself started its life on 14th June, 1999 as a programming block on Disney Channel Kuboia, airing every day from 9:00a.m. to 12:00p.m.

On 13th May, 2002, the Playhouse Disney block was discontinued, and it was spun off into its own channel. It aired everyday from 6:00a.m. to 8:00p.m., airing shows acquired from the American feed, as well as some other shows including Frootie Tooties, Fun Song Factory, Wimzie's House and Wildlife. In order to compete with KT and Nick Jr. Kuboia, the channel also started to produce its own programming in 2002, though it did not prove as popular.

On 31st January, 2005, a new logo and ident packaging was introduced. In September that year, the channel extended its broadcast hours, now ending every night at 10:00p.m. The last three hours of each night were branded as Playhouse Disney Bedtime, and were dedicated to older works such as The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh and Disney's Adventures of the Gummi Bears.

As Disney Junior (2013-2017)
On 15th April, 2013, Playhouse Disney was rebranded as Disney Junior.

As Little Disney (2017-2020)
In June 2017, promos for Little Disney, a supposedly new television channel, began appearing. At the time, it was not stated to be a replacement for Disney Junior, this was instead confirmed the following month. Disney Junior officially rebranded as Little Disney on 23rd October, 2017. According to Little Disney's Twitter page, the decision to rebrand the channel under a new name was decided since it had enough differences to other Disney Junior feeds internationally to justify a different change in name.

Programming
Since Little Disney did not air any advertisements, breaks in between shows included promos for both itself and its sister channels, as well as interstitials which ranged from songs to promotional material.

At several points in the channel's life, in-vision continuity links were provided by presenters at certain times of the day. Unlike KT, these were pre-recorded.

It acted as both an on-demand service, featuring new episodes of shows for a limited time, and a collection of minigames and stories. It was rebranded as Little Disney Planet in October 2017. The app was discontinued following the channel's closure, though those who previously downloaded it can still play the games on it.
