WINX CLUB promotes the development of social skills, with actions such as speaking kindly to others, doing good for ones community, and managing anger appropriately, integrated into the shows humor. These social competencies are now considered legitimate and necessary objectives of school curricula. The program is regularly scheduled and airs between the hours of 7:00am and 10:00 pm.
