Kids' Block
A programming block dedicated to children's programming, mostly Saturdays (In the United States) or Sundays (In Japan). This kind of programming may contain animated shows, live-action Kid Com shows or Toku, or both.
However, only a few of them exist today on U.S. broadcast networks due to cable networks dedicated to children's programming. In fact, only three exist today, from ABC, CBS and The CW. In Japan, it exists on most networks, but most don't have block names, save for TV Asahi's Super Hero Time.
