My boys are 6 and 8 years old now and each year it gets harder to control guide what they are interested in. But I think it will be quite a long time before they age out of PBS KIDS. They love the exciting adventures of the Wild Kratts and Word Girl, learning about paleontology from Dinosaur Train, and hearing the informative Seussisms of The Cat in the Hat Knows A Lot About That.
In honor of Dr. Seuss’ birthday on Saturday, PBS KIDS is having a Cat In The Hat-a-thon on Friday, March 2. We will definitely be watching (or DVRing) the two new episodes that will be airing, one about seasons and the other about growing up. You can catch the 2-hour marathon in Los Angeles on PBS Socal starting at 8 a.m Friday and also at 6 a.m. Sunday.
If you want even more The Cat In The Hat Knows A Lot About That, you can enter to win one of two prizes I’m giving away. The prize includes a The Cat In The Hat Knows A Lot About That video plus a 3D book and a $25 gift certificate to the PBS KIDS shop. All you need to do to win is leave a comment with your contact information before noon on Sunday, March 4. I’ll pick 2 winners using Random.org and announce them on March 5.
The winners are Angelike and Shelley. Thank you for playing!
Disclosure: I received the same prize pack that I’m giving away
We hadn’t seen The Cat in the Hat Knows a Lot About That show but I think it would be a big hit with Charlie. Thanks for posting about this, I’ll have him watch and let you know what he thinks
We love The Cat in the Hat Knows A Lot About That! Thanks for letting us know about the Hat-a-thon. Can’t wait to see The Lorax.
“To the thing-a-ma-chigger!!” (=
Love to be entered to win — great show!

Happy Birthday Dr. Seuss! Please enter me to win!
I’m not entering the contest, but I wanted to comment. I LOVE Cat in the Hat and PBSKids. One of my goals when my boys were younger was to keep their innocence for as long as possible. With the help with PBSKids I was able to achieve that goal — they aren’t so blind to the world but they do see it differently than most of their classmates.
