Studies show that American families are struggling to prepare their children for kindergarten, and many parents worry their children won’t have the skills they need when they start elementary school. WOSU Public Media can be a vital resource for those families most in need.
Do you remember the first time you watched "Sesame Street" or experienced the world of "Daniel Tiger’s Neighborhood" through the eyes of your toddler or grandchild? Through WOSU Kids, these great programs along with other trusted PBS KIDS programs are now available on TV and digital streaming 24 hours a day, seven days a week. PBS KIDS is rated No. 1 for preparing kids for success in school and in life by parents.
