Disney Jr., formerly Playhouse Disney and Disney Junior, is an American preschool programming block on Disney Channel. Aimed mainly at children aged two to six years old, its programming features a mix of live-action and animated series.

The block was rebranded as "Disney Junior" on Disney Channel on February 14, 2011, with the international programming blocks and television channels featuring the Playhouse Disney brand rebranding to Disney Junior later that year. The block later launched the "Mickey Mornings" sub-block in 2020.
