The first annual Children’s & Family Emmy Awards, held on Saturday and Sunday, Dec. 10 and 11, are honoring the best in children and teen entertainment on broadcast and streaming services.
The inaugural ceremony features JoJo Siwa as the host of the Children’s & Family Creative Arts Emmy ceremony on Dec. 10 and “30 Rock” star Jack McBrayer as the host of the Children’s & Family Emmy Awards on Dec. 11.
“Putting a spotlight on children’s & family programming after years of unparalleled growth in content quality and quantity in this space is an exciting moment for the television industry,” said Adam Sharp, President and CEO of the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences, in a statement. “These programs entertain, inform and educate family members of all ages, and NATAS is proud to mark this milestone event and give these creators the stage they deserve.”
The ceremony will also honor LeVar Burton with the first-ever Lifetime Achievement honors, celebrating his time as the beloved host of “Reading Rainbow”, as well as his many other achievements, which include 13 Emmy Awards, three NAACP Awards, a GRAMMY Award for Spoken Word Album, a Peabody Award, the Fred Rogers Award, the Inamori Prize for Ethics in Entertainment.
