Discovery Familia is an American Spanish-language family-oriented specialty television channel owned by Warner Bros. Discovery. It launched on November 1, 2007, after Discovery Communications merged its pre-existing Spanish-language channels, Discovery Kids en Español and Discovery Travel & Living (Viajar y Vivir), together into one channel. Both networks launched together on June 30, 2005.[1]

Programming for preschoolers airs from 6:00 a.m to 11:00 a.m Eastern Time, while the rest of the schedule is devoted to family-oriented programming dubbed from the American Discovery networks or natively in Spanish from its sister networks worldwide.

As of February 2015[update], approximately 5.8 million American households (or 5% of households with television) receive Discovery Familia.[2]
