About Fun Kids
Fun Kids is the UK's children's radio station, made for kids, families and parents. It plays family-friendly pop hits alongside stories, science, history, quizzes and features that make learning fun, all presented by friendly hosts who talk to children on their level. On this page you can listen to Fun Kids live online for free.
Radio made for children
Fun Kids went on air in May 2005, created by GCap Media, Hit Entertainment and children's radio campaigner Susan Stranks, who had long argued that British children deserved their own radio station. It began on DAB in London and later spent several years on national DAB, before moving to DAB in selected cities. Today it is operated by Children's Radio UK and is available nationally online, through smart speakers and on mobile apps, with associated websites, YouTube channels and podcasts. A spin-off station, Fun Kids Junior, caters for younger children.
What you will hear
Fun Kids plays pop songs that are safe and fun for the whole family, from chart hits to film and TV favourites, mixed with short features that inform and entertain. Programmes cover science, nature, space, history, books and the news, explained in a way children can understand. Shows with presenters such as George, Afternoons with Dan and The Club with Bex keep listeners company through the day, and the station runs competitions, challenges and podcasts that families can enjoy together. It is great for the school run, car journeys, playtime and homework breaks.
