Directors Guild of America Award for Outstanding Directorial Achievement in Children's Programs

The Directors Guild of America Award for Outstanding Directorial Achievement in Children's Programs is one of the annual Directors Guild of America Awards given by the Directors Guild of America. It was first awarded at the 49th Directors Guild of America Awards in 1997. Before 1996, most children's programs competed in the Drama Show Day category before it retired in 1994.
In July 2025, the DGA announced that the Children's Programs category would no longer be presented due to "an increasing decline in submissions", making the 77th Directors Guild of America Awards the final ceremony to feature it.
