As many of you know, I’ve been a Literacy Specialist for over fifteen years. When it comes to literacy and language acquisition, there aren’t many subjects that are as near and dear to me as this one. I’ve always been a huge advocate of programs and toys that provide children with the educational opportunities to enhance their academic skills. Since both of our boys were babies, we have always monitored their television viewing and made sure that they watch programs that have some kind of educational value.
Recently, we were very excited to find out that Kabillion,the free on-demand kids’ TV network, is offering downloads of popular Kabillion series like Chloe’s Closet, Dive Olly Dive, and ToddWorld for instant streaming. Let’s face it, with 75% of today’s kids in the United States having access to some type of mobile device it’s very convenient to be able to stream quality kids’ content right to their electronic devices.
Kabillion’s vast library of educational and informational series will be available for download at 4, 6 or 13 episodes for various prices. Your kids can even tap into their creative sides instructions by downloading free coloring pages from the various series that will also be posted on their website.
I love these Kabillion series because they are innovative and address topics that are relevant to kids today. Additionally, their graphics and characters are vibrant and appealing. Each is targeted to preschool children ages 3 to 5 years old.
Here is a little information on each series:
Chloe’s Closet – Follows the fun-filled adventures of an adorable, imaginative little girl named Chloe, who discovers magical new worlds while playing dress-up. Chloe’s exploits encourage the audience to celebrate how delightful it is to be a child embarking upon a fabulously fun and fearless, anything-can-happen journey.
Dive Olly Dive – The series follows the fun-filled underwater escapades of Olly and Beth, two young, unmanned research submarines in training. Under the guidance of their human supervisor Diver Doug, they discover the marvels of the world they live in.
ToddWorld – Based on Todd Parr’s acclaimed children’s books, ToddWorld is a celebration of imagination in a world where everyone is welcome.
Chloe’s Closet, Dive Olly Dive, and ToddWorld, all recipients of Parents’ Choice Awards, are the first three programs available for download at Kabillion!
Let’s Discuss: How much do you monitor what your children watch on television and what kinds of animated films or series are they allowed to watch?

I am almost always right along side them while they watch tv because our only tv is in the living room. We are pretty much ALL Disney XD here, though.
i think my daughter would enjoy it because there is fun animation and seemingly interesting stories.
I watch what my youngest watches all the time. No swears, no violence, no adult content. They are only little for so long
I agree the graphics are super cute and appealing. With the parents’ choice award, it’s a sure thing too.
I think my girls would love the animation and simplicity of the characters. It seems like a very appealing show.
this looks too cute. Is it crazy that I want to watch this series.
When my kids were little, I really tried to push them to watch educational shows. Of course they were fun shows like The Magic School bus but I liked that they were learning while they watched!
This looks adorable, and I love when kids can watch something fun that’s also educational and not violent and stupid!
I really am loving how technology is moving along for the kids, not just the adults!
My kids are grown but I have young nieces and nephews and great nieces and nephews that I am sure watch a few animated series from time to time. This series looks really cute and most likely would be something they would love to watch. Especially the little 4 year old niece.
These all sound like such cute shows for preschoolers! My girls are long past that stage but we definitely limited TV time and only allowed more educational material.
Wow my granddaughter has never watched these shows before.
Oh cute. We have never heard of these shows. Kiddo is a bit old for preschool ages tunes, but if they are cute enough we sometimes give them a watch.
I have never heard of these shows before. Dive Olly Dive looks really cute though!
13 downloads is a lot. That’s awesome. And the graphics really are cute.
My son especially loves ocean and lake fish/sharks, etc. So I think he’d be excited to see this
I don’t have any children so no monitoring here. If I did I would certainly be very careful of what they watched. These sound not only educational but fun as well.
I’m looking into these. I think my Littles would love to hangout with these characters for a short bit!
I think my niece and nephew would love this because my sister has been teaching them how to use and play educational apps on her tablet since they could push a button. They would love this as well.
What some cute sounding shows, love that they are mix between fun and educational 🙂 x
I’m not familiar with the series, but it sure does look cute. Someone’s going to win a great prize!
I have never heard of these shows before. I am going to share this with my friends who have smaller children.
My youngest is only allowed to watch two stations. All of the shows on them are safe.
How fun that it’s geared towards the younger crowd. I agree, the graphics are vibrant and colorful. I like them!
How did I not know this existed, I’ll have to share with my grandkids!
My son already watches Chloe’s closet so I’m sure he’ll also love dive olly dive
I like that it really lets my son explore his imagination plus he learns a lot from these series.
