LEARNING SNACKS

Connecticut Public’s weekly “Learning Snacks” is a quick, curated collection of free activities, games, recipes, and videos that will keep your child’s hungry mind fed and busy hands engaged. Help them to create, discover and develop while playing and having fun!

Learning Snacks
January is a great month to celebrate trying new things! Start off the year right with ALL NEW EPISODES of Daniel Tiger’s Neighborhood airing now! The episodes feature themes around new experiences like going to the dentist and visiting the library. This week, it’s all about Daniel!


This new animated series for kids ages 3-5 is designed to support early literacy skills for preschoolers by showcasing the various kinds of texts they see in their everyday lives— from signs and posters to labels and movie tickets— helping them understand, navigate, and participate in the world around them.


FOR PARENTS

We know it takes a village to raise children and we’re here to help. Explore our hundreds of trustworthy resources, all intentionally curated to help you on your journey of raising a child that is curious, resilient and excited to learn!
