The Curious George children’s program website offers earth science investigations to conduct with preK-2 children. These tested, age-appropriate activities are detailed online at aptly named “Curiosity Centers”. At these “Curiosity Centers” (or activity stations), children can make their own discoveries about recycling, wind, water drops, and the properties of soil and sand. Family take-home activity sheets can be downloaded along with book recommendations. A related episode from CURIOUS GEORGE, which might help introduce the topic of earth science to children, can be ordered for free by contacting Gay Mohrbacher at gay_mohrbacher@wgbh.org. Family activity pages in Spanish also can be ordered in quantity and will be shipped gratis.
