Annual Kids Fest to be held in September

Calling all families and friends! We invite you to  join us Saturday, September 20th from 10 a.m. - 2 p.m. for the WNIN Kids Fest! This free, family-friendly event promises a fun-filled day of educational activities, live entertainment, special appearances from your favorite PBS KIDS characters and much, much more!

During the event, attendees will have the opportunity to stop by and hang out with a variety of businesses and organizations from around the region. Each booth will host a hands-on activity, offer educational information and resources and even hand out goodies!

The event will also feature inflatables, food trucks, PBS KIDS Character Meet and Greets, and games that emphasize the importance of lifelong learning in our daily lives. And as is Kids Fest tradition, every child will take home a FREE book of their choice!

The WNIN Kids Fest is important because it gives us the unique opportunity to bring hundreds of Tri-State families together and show them just how much fun learning can be! Not only that, but it’s also a chance for us to connect the public with local resources they may not have known about before.

In anticipation of the event, check out PBS KIDS programming on 9.1 WNIN PBS every morning. Additional games and educational resources can be found on pbskids.org/grownups/.

Follow us on Facebook and Instagram or subscribe to WNIN emails for more information about Kids Fest as it becomes available. We hope to see you there!
