CBeebies

CBeebies is a cable-free network that originated as a subnetwork of CBBC which originated in London. Originally launched as a Sky service, CBeebies replaced the original CBBC on Choice block on February 11th, 2002. It was founded by BBC, along with students Chris Jarvis, Sue Monroe, the Day Brothers, and Sid Sloane at the University of Manchester.

Since its creation, CBeebies has a regular feature with on-air presenters. It also regularly airs "The Bedtime Hour," a programming block which gets young children prepared for bed. Notably, unlike most UK networks of this type (i.e. Milkshake, CiTV), CBeebies is available for moneyless families. They also air educational shows which entertain viewers in the process.
