Nurture your baby’s or young child’s constant quest for answers and stimulate his or her vivid imagination through Little Explorers. This program is created especially for you and your child, ages 6 months – 4 years, to enjoy and explore together.

Scribbles and Dribbles

Discover how much power a scribble of crayon or a dribble of paint can hold! It’s never too early to introduce your child to self-expression by encouraging them to draw on their own creativity.

Science Buddies

How many times have you been asked, “Why"? Now you can show your child how to find out by taking them on their first steps through the scientific method —making observations, testing ideas, and answering questions.
