The Flintstone Kids is a Saturday-morning cartoon on ABC and a Sunday-morning cartoon series in syndication as part of The Funtastic World of Hanna-Barbera. It reimagined the main characters of The Flintstones—Fred, Wilma, Barney and Betty—as schoolchildren. A supporting segment, Captain Caveman and Son, was presented as a television program enjoyed by the children of Bedrock, contrary to a previous Flintstones series in which Captain Caveman interacted with the grown-up Flintstones and Rubbles.

Premise

The program aired from 1986 to 1988 on ABC, And as part of the weekday/weekend morning programming block The Funtastic World of Hanna-Barbera. The series contained a total of 75 half-hour episodes, with 24 of them consisting of the "main" segment, "The Flintstone Kids". The series also contained three additional segments:
