New additions to the Discovery Kids schedule include: CG (Canadian Geographic) Kids, which combines real action/adventure and old-fashioned hilarity to show kids the awesome beauty of Canada, and Martin Mystery, an animated series following Martin and his hilariously mismatched pal Diana as they investigate the weirdest paranormal enigmas and the slimiest, most monstrous creatures from beyond. The schedule also has fresh new episodes of viewer favourites, including Endurance; Trading Spaces: Boys vs. Girls; Jungle Run; and Spy Academy.

Each week, CG Kids combines real action/adventure and old-fashioned hilarity to show kids the awesome beauty of Canada.

With spectacular footage and cool animations, graphics and maps, CG Kids gives kids an up-close look at the incredible people and unforgettable landscapes that make our country great.
