DIRECTV Kids Programming Grows Up.
Starting on December 31st 2007, the N and Noggin will broadcast for a full 24 hour day. The N will now be hosted on channel 303 and Noggin will be staying where it is on channel 298. Currently Noggin (TV’s closest thing to preshcool) caters to 2-5 year olds from 6am to 6pm and helps children build skills needed for early development. The N takes over at night time and is geared more to teenagers from 9 to 14 years old and battles all those issues we remember from middle school. With both of these channels moving to a 24 hour rotation, perhaps parents will have another trusted source for educational TV to distract their children at any time of day. For some of us it means less burned dinners and the ability to get the night time routine in gear with less of a headache.
