1st Logo (2009-2017)

WGBH Kids (2009)

Logo: Same as the 2008 WGBH logo, except it is tinted blue like the local variant, and when the WGBH logo is formed, semi-animated pictures of PBS Kids characters such as Curious George, Arthur and Buster, Leona (from Between the Lions), Ruff Ruffman (from Fetch! with Ruff Ruffman) Martha the dog (from Martha Speaks), and the Design Squad logo popping up as "kids" appears under the glowing WGBH logo.

Variant: On Peep and the Big Wide World, Curious George is seen hanging from above instead of standing, and Peep, Chirp, and Quack appear at the bottom left right next to Martha, the logo is in 60 fps, and the end theme is heard.

FX/SFX: The WGBH logo forming, with "kids" appearing along with the characters and the character animations.

Music/Sounds: The short version of the WGBH music followed by the sound of laughing children, or the ending of the show's theme.

Availability: Seen on PBS Kids programs produced by WGBH from early 2009 to 2017, such as Arthur, Curious George, Martha Speaks, Fetch! With Ruff Ruffman, among others.

2nd Logo (May 29, 2017- )

WGBH Kids (2017)

Logo: The logo begins on a ruffled white background that resembles crumpled paper. Surrounding the borders of the logo are colored pencil scribbles consisting of the colors grey, green, blue, yellow, and orange. Also on the background is the orange word "Kids" which is scrambled around the screen. A folded in paper cube rolls in from the right center of the screen and stops in the center. The cube unfolds to reveal the WGBH logo which is solid and colored blue. The screen zooms out as the "Kids" text bounces towards the bottom right of the WGBH logo and settles. The cube continues to unfold turning the background into a white paper background. A yellow "firework" in the shape of an asterisk explodes on the top right of the logo. Another purple asterisk firework explodes in the bottom right. The "Kids" text wiggles around throughout the logo. After the fireworks explode, the logo stops zooming out and freezes before fading to black.

FX/SFX: The cube rolling in and unfolding, the word "Kids" jumping into its place, and the "fireworks." Simple computer animation, but still creative.

Music/Sounds: The tail end of the WGBH music accompanied by a playful techno rendition of the music with a beat in the background.

Availability: Current. First seen on new episodes of Arthur. Should appear on newer episodes of children's programming produced by WGBH.
