Parenting Counts!
The goal of these workshops is to help grownups understand what's really going on in their child’s development, and to learn about effective parenting and caregiver techniques for each stage.
Taming the Tube
Using clips from PBS Kids shows, we'll show you how everyone in your family can become a critical media consumer. By combining TV viewing with reading and activities, kids get a bigger picture "beyond the box."
Television and Literacy
Use the power of television to help teach early and emergent literacy skills! With Sesame Street, Between the Lions and Super WHY!, you can open a world of reading for both English- and Spanish-speaking families.
Healthy Kids, Active Viewers
With childhood obesity reaching epic proportions, almost everyone blames television. This workshop will teach both parents and educators how to create a healthier attitude about television and food.
Smarter Spending After Saturday Morning
Kids are constantly bombarded with commercial messages. Get the scoop on how advertisers target kids and how you can use the very same tricks to resist the "must have" mentality.
