TV Ra-Tim-Bum is a Brazilian cable and satellite TV channel. It is run by the Padre Anchieta Foundation and most of its programming is aimed at children. At first the channel's programming consisted entirely of Brazilian productions, though that has changed in recent years. Many shows are reruns of TV Cultura material, though it also produces and co-produces original content. The channel started operations in December 2004.
In 2007 it became available in the United States. In 2009 the station became available in Portugal.
