Famine of Content

Milo family

When we first became Muslim, we were shocked at the lack of appropriate entertainment for our children to watch. Even when we moved to a Muslim country it didn't get any better - in some ways it was worse, because they had mostly violent cartoons like Tom & Jerry that we wouldn't let our children see in America. We realized then the Muslim community as a whole is facing a famine of content, that our children are starving for healthy, wholesome content.

Supermarket of Muslim Kids TV 

As experienced film & production professionals, we decided to take on the ominous challenge of creating shows for Muslim children worldwide ourselves. What would have been impossible a decade ago - having our own channel - is now a reality thanks to the internet. After many years of hard work and support from communities across the world, we finally launched www.MuslimKids.TV on March 1, 2014.

The site is a supermarket of healthy content, containing hundreds of videos, computer games and educational activities – all developed specifically for your children. Our goal is to provide new content on the site each month, working with amazingly talented Muslims to produce original works.

Picnic of Poems by Dawud Wharnsby

Dawud and books

We are excited to announce we are working with internationally renowned nasheed artist Dawud Wharnsby to turn his book & CD Picnic of Poems into a series of 30 animated shorts on MuslimKids.TV. Picnic of Poems is provides a view into the world of young children through poems filled with rich imagery and sensory experience. These nasheeds are guaranteed to put a smile on the face of young children and to get them up singing.
