Why start with television? Let's face it: kids love to watch TV. Our job is to help them become smart viewers: to be choosy about which programs they watch, to think about what they see and hear, and to understand how television relates to their own lives.

Children's public television offers a secure neighborhood where kids can explore these issues. Creators of the programs work with educators to combine positive role models and powerful educational content. And children love what they see!

That's why Ready to Grow centers its activities around PBS shows like Zoom, Arthur, and Between the Lions. These programs provide a safe viewing climate for kids ages 6-12, and they emphasize important underlying ideas for you to explore with children.
