The National Geographic Kids programming block that debuted recently on MundoFox consists of quality educational programs the whole family can enjoy together. It is geared to kids ages 4 to 11 and will run from 9am to 12pm on Sundays. “We think a National Geographic Kids block will appeal to this audience because it is high quality, visually appealing and fun for kids of all ages.
