Parents & Families

 

The Maine Public Broadcasting Network is committed to providing television programs that help children to learn, grow and discover their world. That's why we have devoted our entire weekday schedule to non-commercial programming for young minds. MPBN also offers parents and families valuable resources to support the educational value of your child's favorite programs. You can find information about your child’s stages of development, strategies for talking with kids, ways to help your child succeed in school, and parenting advice.
