TCT Kids is the children's programming division of the Tri-State Christian Television network. The block of religious-themed children's-oriented shows airs Saturday mornings on TCT's primary network feed in order to meet its affiliates' and owned-and-operated stations' federally mandated educational programming requirements.

TCT Kids also runs as a standalone feed from 6:30 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. Eastern Time daily on its Web site. From 7:30 p.m. to 5 a.m., the TCT Kids feed runs public domain films and television series; the remaining time is occupied by young-Earth creationist Ken Ham's daily program Answers in Genesis and a simulcast of TCT's flagship program, TCT Today.

The remaining stations carrying the standalone feed as a digital subchannel had discontinued it by fall 2017, when TCT signed an affiliation deal with the commercial network Light TV.
