Rootle, PBS North Carolina’s 24/7 PBS KIDS channel, is a trusted educational partner to families, caregivers, and educators across the state. In addition to sharing STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math), literacy, physical, social-emotional, and sensory activities, the Rootle Roadster Tour aims to build awareness of community resources and services from local partners who serve young learners.
“PBS North Carolina’s Rootle Channel brings learning to life in homes and schools across North Carolina. This learning is taking flight with the Rootle Roadster Tour,” says Lauren McDowell, PBS North Carolina’s Director of Children’s Media and Education Engagement. “Our Rootle team has the great honor of extending this learning to communities through each stop on the tour. And thanks to our community partners, we’re able to provide an inclusive day of exploration, learning and family resources.”
Rootle Ambassadors, committed community leaders working to reach early learners and support families with PBS KIDS–inspired engagement, will also be present.
“By bringing the Rootle Roadster to their home community, they can also meet their Rootle Ambassador, who are so knowledgeable about their community’s unique needs.” says Dr. Melissa Rihm Thibault, PBS North Carolina’s Chief Education and Innovation Officer. “The connections that children, parents and caregivers make at Rootle Roadster Tour stops are lasting.”
“The Roadster Tour, known for its commitment to fostering family bonds and creating unforgettable adventures, teams up with esteemed community organizations to enhance the overall experience for families throughout the state. These collaborations aim to bring together the best of both worlds – the Rootle PBS KIDS dynamic events and local community organizations' dedication to enriching family life.” – Jewel Ausby Lowe, PBS North Carolina’s Rootle Roadster Tour Event Manager.
