3Kids is a three-hour children's strand which airs daily on Irish television channel Virgin Media Three, and previously on 3e.[1][2]

History

3Kids began broadcasting on 3e (now Virgin Media Two) from 27 June 2016, presented by Claire Flynn and Ollie Kelly, both newcomers to television.[1] The programming block airs seven days a week from 07:00 to 10:00,[1] and features shows including Barney & Friends,[1] Babar and the Adventures of Badou,[1] Ghosts of Time,[2] Jibber Jabber,[2] Origanimals,[1] Rainbow Ruby,[2] Stella and Sam,[2] Teletubbies,[1] and The Wiggles.[1]

On 9 January 2017, 3Kids moved to 3e's new sister channel, Be3 (now Virgin Media Three), which was rebranded from UTV Ireland on that day.[3][4]
