Panhandle PBS is bringing Camp TV to its on air programming lineup to help boost summer learning with a fun, educational, twice-a-week-at-home alternative to day camp.
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, theater, 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 hour-long episode of Camp TV will feature a theme of the day, like "song day," "cooking day," and "heroes day." Additionally, each episode will include a storytelling segment that features a different book of the day.
Panhandle PBS will broadcast episodes on Fridays at 2 p.m. and Sundays at 10 a.m. beginning today, July 17, through September 20. To watch Camp TV on demand, click here, and for more learning opportunities, click here!

As a trusted resource and educational partner for learners age two 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.
