PBS Kids-Wxel

High-Quality Television for Kids!

August 29, 2013
PBS KIDS shows are among the most education-rich offerings on television, they are part of a "carefully-selected schedule" packed with engaging series designed to boost four key areas of childhood development: Cognitive (including literacy, science, technology and math), Social, Emotional and Physical (guiding kids towards healthy living).
 
Like Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood (airs weekdays 11:00AM and 2:00PM), this animated show for preschoolers is based on the adventures of young Daniel Tiger.
The program uses music and appealing neighborhood characters to help kids build social skills and Curious George (airs weekdays 8:30AM and 3:30PM), George is a little monkey with an insatiable curiosity. Like George, our children are intrigued by new things. They're natural explorers and scientists, and they're anxious to know how things work.
