For more superhero fare, Miraculous World: New York United Heroez on Disney Channel (DStv channel 303) follows Ladybug and Cat Noir’s adventures on a school trip to New York where they meet the American superheroes – and have to help them save the day!
For the preschoolers, Garden Tales on CBeebies (DStv channel 306) is an imaginative soap-opera-style kids programme. Through entertaining stories and live-action footage about cute animals, your kids will connect with the natural world. Each episode includes tales of a specific animal and stories of their adventures, be it an owl’s hide-and-seek game with its family to little ducklings who are learning to swim. Over on Jim Jam (DStv channel 310), Fireman Sam saves Pontypandy in Fireman Sam: Set For Action! But when a video of his heroics goes viral, will Fireman Sam be able to juggle his newfound fame with the responsibilities of being a fireman?
