Nine PBS Bayer Studio
Nine PBS is excited to invite you to a free early screening of the brand-new PBS KIDS series Phoebe & Jay—a joyful, curiosity-sparking show designed especially for young learners.
Bring your little explorers for a fun and engaging experience as we preview this delightful new program before it premieres on PBS KIDS. The new show, which follows the adventures of the curiously charismatic 6-year-old fraternal twins, Phoebe and Jay, highlights a variety of texts that preschoolers encounter in their daily lives–from labels and signs to posters and more–to foster their early literacy skills and help them navigate the world around them. This event is perfect for preschoolers (ages 3-5) and the grown‑ups who love them.
