2022 Children’s & Family Creative Arts Emmy Winners (FULL LIST, NIGHT 1)

After splitting off from the Daytime Emmys, the first-ever Children’s & Family Emmys ceremony is here.

Taking place at the Wilshire Ebell Theatre in Los Angeles on Saturday, Dec. 10, the first night of the festivities focused on the creative arts, with trophies doled out for achievements in writing, directing, voice direction, cinematography, editing and more.

The National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences announced the establishment of the Children’s & Family Emmys in late 2021, nodding to recent growth in scope and reach among that programming, which NATAS president and CEO Adam Sharp said could “stand on its own two feet.” Indeed, younger audiences aren’t strictly daytime cable viewers anymore — much of the innovation in children’s and family TV in recent years has happened in streaming. Case in point: Netflix was nominated for more awards than any other platform, beating even Disney+, Disney Channel and Disney Junior combined.

Saturday’s ceremony was hosted by JoJo Siwa, the dancer, singer and actor who rose to prominence for starring in “Abby’s Ultimate Dance Competition” and “Dance Moms” before going on to release original music, star in several Nickelodeon programs and finish second in Season 30 of “Dancing with the Stars” — along with working on some of the Emmy-nominated programs below herself.

Meanwhile, presenters included Malia Baker and Sophie Grace (Netflix’s “The Baby-Sitters Club”); Ben Giroux (“Henry Danger,” “The Adventures of Kid Danger,” “Big Nate”); PBS Kids characters Donkey Hodie and Purple Panda; Shaylee Mansfield and Jevon Whetter (“Madagascar: A Little Wild”); former NBA star John Salley (Disney+’s “Sneakerella”); “Sesame Street” puppeteer Martin P. Robinson (“Mr. Snuffleupagus,” “Telly Monster,” “Slimey the Worm”); and Kyla Pratt (“The Proud Family: Louder and Prouder”).

Sunday’s Children’s & Family Emmys, also held at the Wilshire Ebell, will focus on major categories such as children’s or family viewing series, preschool children’s series, young teen series, fiction special, animated series and performers categories.
