Gemini Award for Best Children's or Youth Program or Series
From Wikipedia the free encyclopedia
The Gemini Awards for Best Children's or Youth Program or Series was presented by the Gemini Awards to honour English children's television programming produced in Canada.[1]
Prior to 1998, a single award was presented for children's programming, regardless of age bracket and inclusive of both fiction and non-fiction programming. In that year, a new award was created for Best Pre-School Program or Series, separating programming for toddlers and young children from programming for older children and teenagers. In 2002, the award was split into separate awards for Best Fiction Program or Series and Best Non-Fiction Program or Series, and the single award was no longer presented.
