Similar to the "regular" PBS for kids site, the kids.us site features carefully selected games and interactive fun from fifteen different PBS television shows.
In the Sesame Street section, you can "Journey to Ernie!" He's hiding somewhere--can you help Big Bird find him? You'll need skills in both coloring and matching to succeed.
Now that you're an expert in seeking and finding, try "George Shrinks." Use the handy online magnifying lens to spy him in the clutter of toys on the bedroom floor. Or you might try looking for the ingredients to "Dragonberry Surprise" in Dragon Tales. The delicious items are hidden around the dragon cave, so be sure to open cupboards and peek under bowls. Ready for more? The Berenstain Bears are going on a picnic and they need your help in gathering goodies, sports equipment, and more.
Early readers might try helping Clifford with his "Puppy Letters" and then squeezing Between the Lions for some "Wordplay."
