KMOS Kids Day
Mark your calendars for the annual family fun day complete with games and special guests! Saturday June 14 we will be in Clinton, MO.

Sesame Street and Barney and Friends might be the television shows most commonly associated with PBS, but clearly the reach of KMOS goes far beyond what is seen on TV. The KMOS workshops for early childhood educators, classes for parents, community partnerships to engage residents, and the many other innovative and effective ways that KMOS reaches out to the community distinguish public television as an educational oasis in the broadcast world. On air and off, KMOS is educating and inspiring more people than ever before.
