Your Support Changes Lives At the heart of PBS North Carolina are people: viewers, donors, children and communities. Your support positively touches each person we reach through national and local content, kids’ programs and major initiatives. Your support helped us create and air Opioids: State of Recovery. After watching season 1, a viewer reached out and told us she found treatment for her child. Because of you, a teacher made it through a tough year with our At-Home Learning resources. With your help, we deliver trusted content that impacts lives every day. COVID Uncovered and emergency briefings have provided essential updates to over 2.3 million viewers. Parents find solace because of your generosity. Living paycheck to paycheck, one viewer relies on PBS KIDS while she makes dinner after work. Her children laugh and learn, bringing her peace. You bring joy to people’s lives. A viewer felt less lonely and found something to look forward to by enjoying PBS NC and the Explorer Channel. We strive to make lives richer, joyful and more connected. Together we educate, entertain and enlighten. You change lives every day. Thank you!

ALL DAY & ALL NIGHT

Elinor Hits the Trail Elinor and her friends head to Hidden Lake for a camping adventure in the new movie Elinor Wonders Why: A Wonderful Journey. They soon discover that the frogs seem to be missing from the lake. How do they get to the bottom of the story? Watch Rootle on Monday, April 18, 9:30 AM, or PBS NC, 10:30 AM, to find out.

Nature Cat Gets Some Fresh Air Nature Cat, a series for kids ages 3 to 7, follows house cat Fred, who dreams of the great outdoors. Once his family leaves for the day, he transforms into Nature Cat, “backyard explorer extraordinaire.” There’s just one problem: he’s still a house cat with no instincts for nature. With the help of his animal buddies, Nature Cat goes on action-packed adventures, inspiring kids to go outside and explore. In April, catch up with Nature Cat every weekend 7–10 AM and 1–4 PM on Rootle. Learn more: pbs.org/parents/shows/nature-cat

Virtual Nature Walk On our website, take a trip with Nature Cat and friends and then get creative with the Nature Art Box. Onward, nature explorers! Explore: pbskids.org/naturecat/games
