Make a Nature Balance Scale
Share a science adventure! Peg + Cat use math every day to solve problems and answer questions. Make a balancing scale with your kid at home to compare the weights of objects found in nature.
We’re excited to team up with our long-time partners at PBS KIDS to bring you content to create a summer of possibilities including getting out in nature, exploring at-home summer activities, and ideas for getting in a back to school routine. PBS KIDS will also be celebrating each weekend from May 28 through August 8 with their learning themes featuring PBS KIDS favorites: WILD KRATTS, DANIEL TIGER’S NEIGHBORHOOD, and more.
This summer invites children & families to play and learn this summer specially curated hands-on activities at PBS KIDS for Parents, game collections at the PBS KIDS website and Games app, and playlists on the free PBS KIDS Video app designed to help kids build key skills they’ll need when school starts again this fall. Families can celebrate learning each weekend with PBS KIDS Family Night, and keep in the know by following PBS KIDS across social media and through the weekly PBS KIDS newsletter.
