Election Day and STEM Day Activities!
FOR KIDS: PBS KIDS LOVES TO VOTE!
Even your favorite PBS Kids characters think voting is important! Check out these videos from Daniel Tiger and Buster and Binky from Arthur as they explain the importance of voting. Or sing along to the “Let’s Take a Vote” song as you learn about how voting works.
FOR PARENTS: LET'S LEARN ABOUT ELECTIONS
Teaching children about voting can help with future decision-making and problem-solving. Sharing thoughts on fairness and politics can increase their civic engagement skills and help them better understand election season. Try reading these books about elections or playing Peg + Cat’s Election Problem game to learn more!
