Cartoonito Italy Live

Cartoonito Italy shows cartoons in Italian all day for pre-school children aged 3 to 8. The line-up is full of series that British families know, such as PAW Patrol and its spin-off Rubble & Crew, Gabby's Dollhouse (La casa delle bambole di Gabby), Hey Duggee, Dino Ranch, Blaze and the Monster Machines, Batwheels, Thomas & Friends, Fireman Sam and Daniel Tiger's Neighbourhood, plus classics such as Doraemon and Tom & Jerry.

The schedule runs 24 hours a day, overnight included, and also features Talking Tom, Simone, Zouk and Chi ha sfidato Ninna e Matti?, a show with the Italian YouTubers Ninna and Matti. Watching familiar characters in Italian can be a gentle first step into the language.

On air since 2011, Cartoonito Italy sits on channel 46 of Italian digital terrestrial television, in HD since 2023. It is run by Boing S.p.A., controlled by Mediaset, which also runs the Boing channel. It is a good pick for anyone looking for cartoons in Italian for young children, at any time of day.
