It’s hard to know how to explain tragic events to young children, or how much information to share. It’s also hard to know if your way of helping them with their fears and anxieties is “the right way” but there are ways to help them feel safer and more secure …and build hope for a more peaceful, kinder future. KET has curated a list of resources in hopes of providing families with a starting place for those difficult conversations taking place about violence in our community.

Join us at KET on February 2 as we highlight PreK-2nd grade resources from the Changing Seasons collection on PBS LearningMedia. These resources were developed through a co-design model, partnering with PBS KIDS and the PNC Foundation, to connect with PreK teachers and PBS member stations, such as KET to align materials from the Grow Up Great Lesson Center with PBS KIDS content. The result… new seasons-themed resources available for PreK teachers– all available in English and in Spanish.
