Wild Kratts “Shark-Tastic” DVD Launched

JOIN THE KRATT BROTHERS ON “SHARK-TASTIC” ADVENTURES IN A NEW DVD
PBS KIDS Series WILD KRATTS Helps Kids Learn Science by Exploring Animals and Their “Creature Powers”

Arlington, Va. – April 6, 2015 – PBS Distribution announced today it is releasing “WILD KRATTS: SHARK-TASTIC” on DVD April 14. “SHARK-TASTIC” includes four episodes of the PBS KIDS hit series WILD KRATTS, two of which are bonus episodes! From learning about the favorite prey of great white sharks, to gaining insight into how dolphins communicate, kids will be exposed to fascinating facts about sharks and other sea creatures in this fun-filled DVD. Animals highlighted in these four stories include a hawksbill turtle, dolphins, a tiger shark, a giant pacific octopus, great white sharks, a bowhead whale, a manta ray and many more.

In each episode of WILD KRATTS, creature teachers Chris 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).

“WILD KRATTS: SHARK-TASTIC” will be available on DVD April 14, 2015. The DVD run time is approximately 60 minutes and its SRP is $12.99. Continue reading Wild Kratts “Shark-Tastic” DVD Launched →

PBS Kids Reminds You to Get Outside and Explore!

PBS Kids Explore the Outdoors Initative

Because I am a PBS Kids VIP (Very Involved Parent) I received a special Explore the Outdoors Kit with many fun things. Included were Outdoors Activity Sheets, Stickers, A Book, A Dinosaur Train Nature Trackers DVD, a Screener of all new episodes of Dinosaur Train and Wild Kratts plus other things like Seed Stakes and an adventure journal. April is Explore the Outdoors month and on April 6 all new outdoors themed content will be available on air, online and on mobile.

At our home we do try and get outside and get into nature often. Last year we started gardening with the kids with a small patio planter. This year we are going to expand upon that. We’ll probably use the seed stakes to plant even more chives around the house. The previous owner planted a bunch of it and there are so many plants around the house. It smells great when I mow the lawn.

We also joined the Audubon Society last year and renewed that membership this year. We tried to get out to as many Audubon locations last year and hope to do even more this year.

IF you want more ideas for getting outside and exploring check out the Explore the Outdoors Twitter party on Wednesday, April 15 at 2pm EST Continue reading PBS Kids Reminds You to Get Outside and Explore! →
