Attention Peg+Cat fans!
Starting Monday, May 5, there will be FOUR new episodes airing on PBS Kids. Are you jumping for joy too? Both Jaxson and Sophia love this cute show that teaches preschooler math. Confession: I love it too. It’s laugh out loud funny. The songs are catchy.
In fact, now you can add Peg+Cat to your playlist with PBS Kids Presents: Peg And Cat’s Really Big Album (affiliate link). You can take all your favorite songs wherever you go!
Also, Cat is hilarious. Have you seen “Yet Another Tree Problem”? That’s the most I’ve ever heard Cat speak in one episode. Peg gets stuck in a tree (instead of Cat) and he has to help her down.
Check your local PBS listings to see when the episodes air.
