History
Seeing a lack of preschool entertainment options for Hispanic children in the United States, V-me Media decided to launch the first 24-hour Spanish-language children's channel in the nation.[2] Utilizing content and experienced gained through its daily kids block on V-me, the channel launched on AT&T U-verse on September 1, 2010.[1][3]
The channel received over-the-air distribution in June 2011, when Puerto Rico-based V-me affiliate WIPR-TV added it as a subchannel. It was also made available on the local Choice and Liberty Cable systems.[4]
Vme Kids was added to Verizon Fios in May 2011.[5] The following October, it was picked up by Cablevision.[6] Vme Kids was added nationally to Comcast Xfinity systems in late 2012.[7] On April 7, 2017, Sling TV added the channel as both a linear and on-demand service.[8]
