Background

GBH Kids (formerly WGBH Kids) is a specialty brand of GBH for children's programming, which started in 2008.

Logo (November 1, 2021-)

Visuals: On a purple background is a group of animals seemingly made of clay with features drawn in by traditional animation. The animals include a light blue bird, a yellow giraffe-like creature, a light blue bird, a darker blue creature resembling a caterpillar, a green frog and an abstract red creature shaped similarly to a boat. All of these creatures converge and combine into the shape of the new GBH logo. The word "Kids" fades in a sans-serif font and the clay shapes fade into the standard purple GBH logo.

Variant: On Work It Out Wombats, the logo starts with the clay animals already appearing, but eventually stops when the GBH logo is almost formed.

Technique: Mostly stop-motion inspired CGI, though the features of the animals are animated with traditional animation.

Audio: The ending theme of the show.

Audio Variant: On Pinkalicious and Peteriffic, the logo uses the music from the second WGBH Kids logo.

Availability: This logo was first spotted on the second season of Molly of Denali, but later appeared on Pinkalicious and Peteriffic and Work It Out Wombats. Like with the WGBH Kids logos, this doesn't appear on Curious George, as GBH pulled out of co-producing the series after season 12.
