Daniel Tiger: Be My Neighbor Day at the Children's Museum


It's a beautiful day to be neighbors! 
WSBE Rhode Island PBS will host “Be My Neighbor Day” at the Providence Children's Museum on Wednesday, May 10, 2017, from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. This event is part of a long-term campaign launched by Vroom, to inspire parents of young children to be their child’s personal Brain Builders, turning everyday moments into opportunities for fun and learning. Free admission to the Museum will be granted to the first 250 registered parents and children. Advance registration is required to qualify for free admission.
At the heart of Be My Neighbor Day is the meet and greet with the Daniel Tiger character from 1 p.m. to 2:30 p.m. Other parent-child interactive activities include building with over-sized blocks and shapes, and, for children age 4 and under, exploring the Littlewoods play area. Registered visitors will receive activity cards, a book, stickers, and other take aways. All visitors are also invited to explore other museum exhibits and play areas before and after the character event.
To register for the event, click here. Be My Neighbor Day is made possible by Vroom (joinvroom.org), funded by the Bezos Family Foundation.
