TV-Y7

Programming rated TV-Y7 in the United States by the TV Parental Guidelines signifies content is suitable for children 7 or older. Many of these programs contain some elements that are not suitable for the TV-Y rating such as mild fantasy violence, comedic violence, or some frightening scenes. Most shows on channels such as Universal Kids (formerly known as Sprout channel), Discovery Family (formerly known as Discovery Kids Channel, Discovery Kids, The Hub and Hub Network), The WB/The CW's KidsClick (formerly known as Kids' WB, Toonzai and Voretxx), Disney Channel, Disney XD, Nickelodeon and Cartoon Network (although TV-PG is gaining favorability for most programming) receive this rating. It is equivalent to the MPA's hard G and soft PG rating for movies, and the ESRB's hard E and soft E10+ rating for video games.

This rating is above TV-Y and below TV-G.
