Discovery Kids Channel (on July 2006, it started a primetime block called @DK) is an American digital cable television channel, owned by Discovery Communications with programming for education of children. Discovery Kids broadcasted a Saturday morning E/I programming lineup for children called Discovery Kids on NBC, which ran from October 5, 2002 through September 2, 2006, when NBC ended the partnership and created a new E/I block called qubo.

Its Canadian equivalent is operated in partnership with Corus Entertainment.

In 2002, Discovery Kids began airing a reality television show entitled Endurance. The show is similar in nature to Survivor, whereby teams compete in exotic locales (such as Hawaii and Tehachapi) and, as of 2007, is in its fifth season.

In the United Kingdom, the channel initially began broadcasting exclusively on the On Digital service time sharing with Discovery Wings; the channel eventually became available on other digital platforms such as Sky Digital. It closed down on 28th February 2007.

The South American version of the channel is similar to Nick Jr. or Playhouse Disney.
