History
Barnkanalen started broadcasting on December 23, 2002. During its first year it was only available from 6.30 a.m. to 6.00 p.m. on weekdays. The channel also took a "summer vacation" between May 23 and August 18. The rest of the time could be used for other programming, some weekends one could see tennis in the schedule. For other uses, see Tennis (disambiguation). ...
The programming was aimed at pre-schoolers in the mornings and the afternoon programming was targeted at older children (pre-teens). The morning block featured special announcers that presented programmes from "the TV ship". Right after it had finished, the morning programmes would rerun immediately. A 1.00 p.m., an interactive show called Twebby was broadcast and it was followed by programmes for older children presented by two animated continuity announcers called "Joppe and Nella". Afternoon programming included animation, English language programming as well as dramas from the SVT archives.
On December 6, 2003, the channel started broadcasting on weekends, from 7.00 a.m.. From 2004, Barnkanalen would be a full year service.
During the 2004 Summer Olympics, SVT Extra would simulcast with Barnkanalen in the evenings and from September 27, 2004, the evening slot would be occupied by Kunskapskanalen. The ceremony for the lighting of the flame is arranged as a pagan pageant, with priestesses dancing. ...

Bolibompa would from then bee the brand for pre-school programming on Barnkanalen as well. Twebby was discontinued later in the autumn. SVT1 is one of two television channels broadcast by Sveriges Television in Sweden. ...
In February 2006, Barnkanalen got new graphics and Joppe and Nella were removed. Instead, a new show called Bobster was shown between the programmes in the afternoon.
Programming
Pre-schoolers Since the programming in the mornings is mostly aimed and preschoolers, it is either Swedish language in original, dubbed into Swedish or silent. Dubbing is expensive to do, as is producing new programmes. So most of the shows have been shown on SVT before, except for a few ones that have been dubbed recently.
Older programming shown in the mornings include Professor Balthazar, Doctor Snuggles and the Alfons Åberg films. Professor Balthazar is a cartoon series for children about an old inventor. ...

Canal Digital was founded in March 1997 as a joint venture between the French pay-TV company CANAL+ and the Norwegian state-telecommunications operator Telenor. ...
