Disney Junior

Disney Junior (formerly Disney Channel Preschool Block and Playhouse Disney) is an American pay television network that is owned by the Walt Disney Television unit of The Walt Disney Company through Disney Channels Worldwide. Aimed mainly at children 8 years and under, its programming consists of original first-run television series, theatrically-released and home media-exclusive movies and select other third-party programming.

1997–1998
On May 8, 1997, Playhouse Disney was launched as the Disney Channel Preschool Block. The block didn't have it's own logo untill Playhouse Disney premier in 1998.

1998–2001
The Disney Channel Preschool Block was re-launched as Playhouse Disney on October 4, 1998 before the premiere of Out of the Box.

2001–2003
In Spring 2001, Playhouse Disney rebranded as Playhouse Disney Channel and got a new look. It was designed by Beehive which was phased out in 2003. Even though the Mickey TV set version of this logo was phased out in 2002, the version without the Mickey TV set continued to be used until 2011.

2002–2011


Due to Disney Channel receiving a new logo on October 7, 2002, the word "CHANNEL" was dropped from its name again, thus the original name was reinstated as well.

2011–present


On February 14, 2011, Disney Channel replaced Playhouse Disney with a new children's programming block under the name Disney Junior, ending the "Playhouse" era after 12 years. The wordmark is set in Futura Extra Bold. It would later be transferred into a TV channel on March 23, 2012.
