History


''Hodge Podge Lodge'' (1987–1994)

From 1987 to 1992, the CBC's two-hour morning block of children's programs was called ''Hodge Podge Lodge'' (not to be confused with the earlier American series of the same name). The CBC's afternoon children's programs during this time were presented under generic CBC branding instead. CBC Children's Publicist Barbara Chernin and Producer Stephen Wrigh came up with the "Hodge Podge Lodge" moniker. Angela Bruce, Head of CBC Children's Programming, consented to the name for the lineup. The Hodge Podge Lodge interstitials featured animated multi-coloured geometric shapes, art supplies, and blocks moving around to music. Following the CBC's rebrand in November 1992, the ''Hodge Podge Lodge'' interstitials were replaced with new ones featuring a group of animated animals. A new character was introduced and a contest was held to name the character.


''CBC Playground'' (1994–2000)

Former theatre director Peter Moss became the CBC's head of children's programming in 1993, and the following winter, the CRTC complained about the CBC's lack of children's programming and presence of U.S. shows on weekday afternoons. On October 24, 1994, the lineup was renamed ''CBC Playground''; the block expanded to 9:30 a.m. with a half-hour block of children's series from around the world. European series requiring narration were recorded in Toronto with the voices of Martha Henry,

. The CBC said all programs between 9:30 a.m. and 11:00 a.m. would be Canadian within two years, as twelve shows for the block's first half-hour went into development. In 1998, Adrian Mills became the CBC's new head of daytime programming, and ''CBC Playground'' was relaunched and expanded by an hour. Two presenters, Lisa Richardson and Drew Carnwath, were added to the block, and virtual sets began to be used. The CBC became a partner in the ''Get Set For Life'' campaign, which aimed to share information on development in preschoolers, alongside non-profit parenting organization Invest in Kids and ''

Due to CBC budget constraints, Quansah, Uppal, Bernier, and O'Brien were removed, and hosting duties were centralized in Toronto with Sullivan and Sid Bobb. This revamp introduced new characters that each represented a different region of Canada. Each of the puppets were used in a variety of scenes in their local setting, typically educational in nature.

Plaskett performed this version of the song in concert on one occasion. In 2013, Kids' CBC underwent another stylistic change, removing all of the puppets except Mamma Yamma. A new theme song, "You and Me and Kids' CBC", was also introduced.


''CBC Kids'' (2017–present)

In 2016, it was announced that ''Kids' CBC'' would be rebranded as ''CBC Kids'' the following winter. This rebrand included the removal of Sullivan, Bobb, and Mamma Yamma. ''CBC Kids'' debuted on January 2, 2017, with hosts Janaye Upshaw and Tony Kim. Victor Verbitsky was a host until 2018. The current puppet characters are Gary the Unicorn, Cottonball the Cat, Mr. Orlando the Moose, Mosey Monster (known as Makeup Monster), and Putter the Computer. The block's current format blends scripted children's programming with live-action segments featuring Upshaw, Kim and the puppet characters, called ''The Studio K Show''. Currently, Marie McCann is the head of children's content at CBC.
