Nine PBS invites families to attend a free sneak peek of the new PBS Kids series Phoebe & Jay, a joyful, curiosity-sparking show designed especially for young learners.
Phoebe & Jay follows the adventures of curiously charismatic 6-year-old twins, and highlights the words they encounter in their daily lives - from labels and signs to posters and more - to foster their early literacy skills and help them navigate the world around them.
At this special event, families can enjoy a special screening of the first episode, hands-on activities inspired by the show, and time to connect to their families and the Nine PBS team.
Phoebe & Jay is best for ages 3-5, but all families are invited. Registration is required.
Saturday, January 31, from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. at Nine PBS studios in St. Louis.
