Disney Channel will expand its weekly Mickey Mouse Clubhouse series to a daily format beginning Sept. 18 as part of its Playhouse Disney pre-school-targeted programming block, according to the network.

Playhouse Disney will kick off the show’s new schedule with a week-long programming event showcasing each of Mickey’s Clubhouse pals each day -- Minnie, Goofy, Donald, Daisy and an all-new episode featuring Pluto -- the programmer said.
