Debuting Monday, September 4 at 4:30 p.m. ET, Little People follows five lovable preschool characters as they travel to wherever their imaginations take them. Whether it’s a journey to a whimsical farm or to a magical jungle with talking animals, their adventures are always filled with laughter, songs and fun. Each episode instills age-appropriate life lessons, such as how to wait your turn or how it is always best to tell the truth.

Bob the Builder and his machine team are ready to tackle any project that comes their way. As they hammer out solutions that lead to a job well done, Bob and the Can-Do-Crew demonstrate the power of positive thinking, problem solving and teamwork. With every new episode comes a new project and challenge where the team shows that the fun is in getting it done. The construction begins Monday, September 4 at 4:55 p.m. ET with new episodes every Monday at 4:55 p.m. ET.

New from DreamWorks Animation, Dinotrux follows the adventures of Ty Rux, a massive Tyrannosaurus Trux, and his best friend Revvit, a razor-sharp Reptool, as they join forces to battle against the evil D-Structs. The series premieres on Monday, September 11 with new episodes airing daily at 5:20 p.m. ET until Friday, September 15. On September 18, Dinotrux officially joins Télémagino’s Monday Funday lineup, airing alongside other DreamWorks series including All Hail King Julien, Dragons: Race to the Edge and The Adventures of Puss in Boots.
