The block was initially hosted by children's entertainer Rory Zuckerman, who was billed as simply "Rory". In 1996, Discovery Kids began to air its shows in its schedule upon its launch as one of the first digital cable networks.
On February 24, 2003, Ready Set Learn introduced Paz the Penguin, who was seen in the block's official logo. The block aired for the last time on TLC on September 26, 2008, and it was replaced with repeats of regular TLC programming three days later.
On October 10, 2010, Discovery Kids was re-branded as The Hub (now Discovery Family) as a joint venture with Hasbro, and the Ready Set Learn block was rebranded with new shows as HubBub the following day; it lasted until 2012.
