Get ready for cozy, cold nights when the family cannot decide what to watch because PBS just gave us the answer. Every family’s favorite classic television channel has exciting things in store for this season — and we think your family will be excited.
PBS is bringing Skillsville, a brand-new series about gaming that teaches life skills, to video game-loving families! It will launch March 3 on PBS Kids in English and Spanish. Gather the gaming-loving kiddos and pop the popcorn for a family premiere viewing.
Skillsville is funded by a Ready to Learn grant from the U.S. Department of Education and aims to help young children develop essential skills for future success. Parents can feel good knowing that these shows are not only entertaining, but also packed with teachable moments.
Another exciting addition to the PBS Kids lineup is Mystery League, an action-packed, live-action series debuting on March 22. The series will follow fifth-grade detectives as they solve mysteries and learn the importance of friendship and community. It’s a perfect way for kids to absorb life lessons while they watch.
While new series are always exciting, fans can also look forward to returning episodes of favorites like Lyla in The Loop, Work It Out Wombats!, and Pinkalicious & Peterrific. Families already know and love these silly characters and can enjoy a whole new season of adventures and teachable moments.
If TV shows are not your family’s preference, PBS Kids also is releasing new podcast episodes.”Work It Out Wombats!” and “Pinkalicious & Peterrific” have fresh podcast episodes that are perfect for car rides or as background noise during playtime.
