Fast Fun and Super Sprinter Science with the Wild Kratts

Andrew with the Wild KRatts Super Sprinters and Wild Kratts Toy

We are fans of the Kratt Brothers here in our home. We love Wild Kratts and are happy when we get sent DVDs and other Wild Kratts things. We received this DVD which is coming out on June 23rd to watch and review. Opinions are 100% our own. These were fun episodes and the kids really enjoyed them. Andrew liked playing along with the little Cheetah and Kratt figure in the creature power suit. Here is more about the DVD.

THE KRATT BROTHERS ARE ON THE MOVE IN NEW WILD KRATTS DVD “SUPER SPRINTERS”

PBS KIDS Series WILD KRATTS Helps Kids Learn Science by Exploring Animals and Their “Creature Powers”

Arlington, Va. – May 20, 2015 – PBS Distribution announced today it is releasing two stories from PBS KIDS’ popular WILD KRATTS series on the new DVD “SUPER SPRINTERS.” The Kratt Brothers are always on the move, and in this DVD, that is never truer! In “Cheetah Racer,” Chris and Martin think that cheetahs can travel faster than any other creature or vehicle over the rough African savannah, but Aviva and archenemy Zach Varmitech challenge this and compete to build a ground racer that can travel even faster. The speed theme continues with “Falcon City.” In this episode the brothers fly with the world’s fastest animal, the Peregrine falcon. The brothers discover that Varmitech and his Zachbots are threatening to destroy a Peregrine falcon’s nest located on a city building. Can Martin and Chris pull off a high flying rescue?

In each episode of WILD KRATTS, creature teachers Chris Kratt and Martin Kratt take kids and their families along on extraordinary animal-powered adventures. The show transforms the Kratt Brothers, creators of the award-winning KRATTS’ CREATURES and Emmy-winning ZOBOOMAFOO, into animated versions of themselves, allowing the real-life zoologists to visit wild animals in their little-seen habitats and showcase key science concepts along the way. WILD KRATTS airs weekdays on PBS KIDS (check local listings). Continue reading Fast Fun and Super Sprinter Science with the Wild Kratts →

PBS Annual Meeting 2015 – Day 3


Photo-A-Day #3687

It was a very short day at the PBS Annual Meeting today. For the PBS Kids VIPS we were able to go to the opening breakfast that was put on for Ready, Jet Go! This is a new Space themed show which looks like it will be a lot of fun. The show centers around Jet, an alien boy who makes friends with the neighborhood kids and takes them on adventures into Space. The show was created by Craig Bartlett who created Dinosaur Train. The interstitials will be done by Dr. Amy Mainzer. She will be teaching kids all about Space and what I’ve seen so far is something that I know my kids will enjoy.

Today’s image is of Ken Hubbell. He draws the notes from all the PBS sessions and they are amazing.

After the breakfast it was time for the PBS Kids showcase. This session was all about the PBS kids shows that will be happening this coming year as well as many educational endeavours of PBS. This was also the session where there are goodie bags. I forgot all about them until I got in and I wondered how was I going to take everything home. There were all sorts of things in the bags including some wooden cars and Wild Kratts mini stuffed animals. Continue reading PBS Annual Meeting 2015 – Day 3 →
