Iowa Public Television

Engage children as Curious George, a spunky monkey that loves to explore the world through a science lens. There is four events on the 9th for homeschooled kids. The events are focused on science, math, and literacy. A Curious George shift is about 20 minutes long, and involves waving at children, high-fiving them, taking pictures with them, and letting kids hug you. Curious George does not talk, but is an easily excitable monkey, so bring some excitement to the role!
