The "Los Kitos"™ radio show offers a unique form of entertainment for children and the whole family, with a great deal of cultural and bilingual education. It provides the audience with a wonderful alternative to Saturday morning television and radio shows. "Los Kitos" is the only Hispanic cartoon in the U.S. Hispanic market that delivers both a positive, uplifting message and a cornucopia of imagination, which television shows can't deliver.

The "Los Kitos" radio show is now being broadcast throughout the countries of Latin America thanks to the Organization of American States (OAS). As part of its weekend magazine show, the OAS is including a six-minute "Los Kitos" segment. The "Los Kitos" radio show features the characters from the comic strip "Los Kitos," which appears weekly in 220 newspapers worldwide. The segment centers around the adventures of Pikito, Mima, and Picarito as they learn to balance cultural traditions with the issues that children face in the world today. The stories utilize simple writing and humor to deliver a positive, values-based message. One-hundred and fifty radio stations are carrying the broadcast.

Mario Martinez y Palacios, the Senior Public Information Officer for the OAS, is the broadcaster for the show. He is a one-man tour de force, who has been involved in broadcasting and journalism for the past 25 years. Born in Ecuador and educated in the United States, Palacios' distinguished career has included positions as a newscaster/anchor, reporter, interviewer and executive with leading Spanish-language radio and television organizations. Palacios said that the OAS support for the program is a result of the organization's policy to help working women in their business endeavors, as well as to meet the needs of children in Latin American countries, who do not have much entertainment geared specifically to them.

In the United States, a thirty-minute "Los Kitos" radio show can be heard from California to Florida. "Los Kitos" is the brainchild of creator Martha Montoya. Montoya emigrated from Columbia with a dream of becoming a cartoonist-one who had something positive and constructive to say to the Latin/Hispanic community worldwide. The formation of Los Kitos Entertainment, LLC, five years ago was the realization of that dream.
