What it does
Games and video programmes featuring PBS children's characters.
PBS KIDS groups its main experience around Games and Videos. Episodes of Super Why and Odd Squad appear alongside Sesame Street programming, so a family can begin with a familiar character rather than a school-subject menu. Use a programme as the prompt for a conversation or a related activity. Apps and a grown-ups area provide other routes for choosing what to explore together.
PBS describes the service for ages two to eight and offers free videos without a subscription. The PBS KIDS Video app is available only in the United States and its territories; check the chosen viewing route before planning a session.
