THE CAT IN THE HAT KNOWS A LOT ABOUT THAT!

DEBUTS ON PBS KIDS® THIS LABOR DAY

PBS KIDS and Random House join to support science learning for preschoolers nationwide with the premiere of THE CAT IN THE HAT KNOWS A LOT ABOUT THAT! on Monday, September 6.

Voiced by award-winning actor Martin Short, Dr. Seuss’s The Cat in the Hat guides friends Sally and Nick – with a little help from the Fish, Thing 1 and Thing 2 – on fun-filled adventures where they make natural-science discoveries, from how bees make honey to why owls sleep during the day.

Filled with both adventure and silliness, THE CAT IN THE HAT KNOWS A LOT ABOUT THAT! , based on the acclaimed The Cat in the Hat’s Learning Library book series, will appeal to preschoolers’ natural curiosity, and engage them in the process of scientific exploration and discovery. To supplement the TV series’ lessons, an activity-filled website will encourage kids to participate in character-driven exploration of science concepts. Additional parent and teacher resources will also be available on PBS Parents and PBS Teachers sites. These sites will feature resources, tools, and ideas, including example questions parents can use to help engage children as they explore the ideas sparked by the series.
