The second season will include the following:

PBS KIDS is strengthening the preschool setting in season two with new age-appropriate curriculum themes presented in a structured format such as “Music Time,” “Math Time,” “Art Time,” and “Reading Time.” Using letters, shapes, colors and other elements designed to get kids involved and engaged, as well as familiar environmental elements such as smocks, easels, mini tables and chairs, books and more, children will feel like they have entered a real preschool each morning on PBS KIDS.

PBS Kids also announced a new show titled SUPER WHY! would join the block.

This animated superhero series is designed to boost literacy skills through interactive fairytale adventures that encourage viewers to participate through entertaining and engaging games. Whyatt Beanstalk, younger brother of Jack from “Jack in the Beanstalk,” and his three fairytale character friends transform into the “Super Readers,” with special literacy-charged powers. The Super Readers jump into books to discover answers and find solutions to everyday preschooler questions and challenges.

The second season, set to debut Fall 2007, is to “feature even more interactivity and engagement as well as greater opportunities for parents and kids to connect the lessons learned through PBS KIDS content back to their daily lives.”

Curious George, which airs during the block, has become a staple in our household over the last couple months. With that as the anchor, my kids have become re-engaged with several other PBS Kids shows like Clifford and Dragon Tales. Both my son and daughter are fans of Miss Lori and Hooper.
