[edit]

The channel was relaunched on 4 August 2012[4] as PLUSPLUS, with new Disney Channel content moved across after the closure of Disney Channel in the country. While developing the program concept, PLUSPLUS collaborated with government agencies, academic and research institutions using government programs, regulations and developments, as well as their recommendations. The channel content is created in a such way as to make it interesting for both children, and their parents.[5]

In 2012 it was awarded the National Television Award "Triumph" in the "Discovery of the Year", and in December 2012, PLUSPLUS launched the broadcasting of Disney programming divided into morning and afternoon blocks, which make up six hours of daily programs.[6]

The channel has prepared three projects "Fairy Tale with Dad" a 10-minute program where famous dads read tales for kids; "Tips and Tricks": animated pictures with solutions of "children’s" problems; and "Happiness Every Day": videos on how to make a kid happy.[7]
