Fun Freetime: PBS Kids Explore the Outdoors

 

Just in time for the warmer weather, PBS KIDS is celebrating the natural world with a special “Explore the Outdoors”-themed lineup, through May 13, featuring all-new specials and episodes from fan-favorite series to help “grow” kids’ curiosity and understanding about the environment and sustainability, while inspiring outdoor fun!

You join Nature Cat, Hal, Squeeks, and Daisy on a week of brand-new Nature Cat escapades, which will take the team from the woods to the river, starting May 9. Outdoor explorations are in store for kids and families in the big city, too! Tag along with Alma as she explores her city, heading everywhere from the playground to checkers camp, with a week of new episodes of Alma’s Way, debuting May 2.

Below is a closer look at what’s on tap for families on PBS KIDS this spring!

Tally ho! Nature Cat, Hal, Squeeks and Daisy will embark on a week of exciting outdoor adventures, helping all sorts of friends along the way! The gang will discover the sounds of the woods to find the soundtrack for a Nature Dance Party, track a scent on the wind to find a spot
