Hello Utah Parents and Educators!

PBS Utah Kids & Education is a Utah grownup's partner in preparing the children in their lives for their earliest educational experiences. We work hard to make sure we are living up to that mission.

This past month, a couple ways we have done that is by participating in Storyland at StoryCon. StoryCon is a gathering of authors, illustrators, educators, and all manner of story makers and appreciators. This was the inaugural year for StoryLand, a section of StoryCon that caters to story appreciating kids 3-7 years old. This free experience included literacy activities and promotion of literacy related initiatives, including our Reading Marathon and Adventure Pass. 

We also had the opportunity to table at the annual UAEYC (Utah Association for the Education of Young Children) conference, where we spoke with so many incredible early childhood educators from all over Utah. We loved hearing about how educators are using PBS KIDS tools in their classes!

We love being your neighbor!

Sincerely,
The PBS Utah Kids & Education Team ❤️
