Camp TV
A Learning Initiative for Children
July – September on Panhandle PBS

Panhandle PBS is bringing Camp TV to its on air programming lineup, as well as parallel online resources, to help boost summer learning across the Texas Panhandle with a fun, educational, twice-a-week at-home alternative to day camp.

Panhandle PBS will broadcast Camp TV episodes on Fridays 2 p.m. and Sundays at 10 a.m. through September 20. Episodes will be available to watch on demand here https://www.pbs.org/show/camp-tv/ with additional Camp TV learning opportunities available on PBS LearningMedia here https://kacv.pbslearningmedia.org/collection/camp-tv/.

Camp TV is a televised day camp experience that children can take part in in the safety of their own homes. An enthusiastic head counselor, played by Broadway performer Zachary Noah Piser, guides “campers” as they learn through play. Campers will explore the arts, music, theatre, nature, science, math, and reading with segments featuring educational and cultural organizations from around the nation such as the New York Public Library, Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts, Bedtime Math, Wildlife Conservation Society, the Memphis Zoo, and more.

Each Camp TV episode will be an hour long and will feature a theme of the day, like “song day,” “cooking day,” and “heroes day.” Every episode also includes a storytelling segment that features a different book of the day. The series is produced by WNET.

Camp TV helps Panhandle PBS meet its mission of inspiring, educating and entertaining audiences across the Texas Panhandle. As a trusted resource and educational partner for learners age 2 and up, Panhandle PBS is providing this series for children, families, educators and education program directors to extend learning opportunities both on and off the screen.
