KPBS Kids Events are back! Visit San Diego Children’s Discovery Museum to meet Curious George, Daniel Tiger, Peg + Cat, and other special guests as we explore the world around us through science, math, and literacy.

Hands-on activity seating is first-come, first-served. As events tend to fill up quickly, please arrive early to secure your spot.
Costume characters are selected for specific events given availability. Access to the meet-and-greet portion of the event may be restricted based on attendance.
