Semillitas 9

SOMOS TV’ Semillitas is celebrating nine years supporting parents by offering the best and safest entertainment content to their children. 

On December 7, 2011, Semillitas started in the United States and Puerto Rico. Through the years, it expanded its coverage to the Caribbean, Panama and Central America. Semillitas became an international channel by SomosTV, successfully performing in the highly competitive segment of children’s entertainment.

Semillitas offers the best entertaining and educational programming, carefully selected, with a plus of teaching the traditions, stories, songs and other topics of the Latin culture. The strategy of offering successful, safe, healthy and violence-free entertainment, at a time when the abundance of unfiltered entertainment causes concern among parents, has been key in the growth of the channel’s distribution.

Luis Villanueva, president, and CEO of SOMOS Group stated: “at SOMOS TV we are proud of the 9th anniversary of Semillitas. We produce this channel with great care and responsibility. It is very motivating to read parent’s comments on Semillitas’ social media, what they say about the healthy and safe space Semillitas’ offers them is very gratifying. Semillitas offers the best animation in the international market, along with the preservation of our common cultural heritage. We have a human and technical team that supports this strategy and is responsible for this delicate task.”

Contents with an international trajectory make up the channel’s programming: Little People, Fireman Sam, Sid, the Science Kid, Doodle boo, Angelina Ballerina, Kit and Kate, Franny’s Feet, Bob the Builder and many others.

To complete this celebration, Semillitas will show its Christmas spirit by presenting the beautiful film Caillou’s Holiday Movie, accompanied by special Christmas programming throughout the month.
