The mission of KLRN is to open a world of lifelong learning through trustworthy and enriching programs on-air, online and in our community.
Dear Families,
 
Cultural celebrations foster respect and open-mindedness for other cultures. Celebrating our differences, as well as our common interests, helps unite and educate us. Celebrations can help children keep one foot firmly rooted in their home culture, while also offering learning experiences that might not otherwise occur. Festivals bring us together and invite us to develop an understanding of the importance of togetherness.

Celebrating special events and festivals can be an integral part of learning and building a strong sense of being and belonging. It promotes respect and understanding of each other's customs and traditions and brings us closer together.

You can find additional resources at pbs.org/parents, a trusted PBS source.
 
Please reach out to us any time at education@klrn.org.
 
With appreciation,
KLRN Education Team

KLRN offers a FREE localized opt-in text message service, Bright by Text. The project engages families from throughout KLRN’s 33-county viewing area!
Healthy Kids Project

KLRN’s Healthy Kids Project supports healthy lifestyles by influencing eating decisions and physical activities.
Through project resources, the audience is introduced to songs, live action movement, animation, and a cast of “perfectly imperfect” characters to deliver key messaging that contrasts healthy choices and attitudes with unhealthy behaviors. Lessons include activities for children ages 0-9 and all school age lessons are aligned to the TEKS.

Join us at Mission Marquee Plaza on Saturday, October 23rd from 6 to 9 PM as we watch kid-friendly PBS KIDS Halloween programs while we enjoy some healthy treats. Plus, a special appearance from Arthur!
