ABC Kids is great if you've only got kids under 5.
It just stays on all day, it's generally all good content (except the petulant Peppa Pig)
But if you've got kids a bit older than that - your options are none and none. ABC really doesn't do programming for schoolage and teenage kids anymore.
Right now for example - 5:54PM Adelaide Time, we've got Kangaroo Beach followed by Octonauts on ABC Kids, great for the under 5s.
But the rest of the channels of ABC are... Antiques Roadshow and ABC News... There is programming for under 5s and over 60s. Nothing inbetween.
Do you have access to Kanopy through your local library? It's an online streaming platform with decent content.
