Perspective
Initially, Piwi had 7 colorful planet mascots, with Soleil (sun) being the main one and part of the logo. At night when the channel stopped its programs, a loop showed the planet mascots saying good night to the viewers.
With the 2011 rebrand, Piwi+ have only a sun as a mascot, and a moon sleeping with a melody during the night break. Since the end of 2019 when TiJi became 24h, Piwi+ is the last French kids TV channel to have a night break.
