Thanks to everyone who made the 2024 Seuss Science Day a success! Save the date for next year's event on March 1, 2025. 

Since 2012 Ozarks Public Television has proudly honored the legacy of beloved children's author Dr. Seuss by presenting Seuss Science Day - an annual event that encourages kids to explore the world around them. Based on the popular PBS KIDS series, "The Cat in the Hat Knows A Lot About That," the event is designed to help young children develop literacy and core science skills while taking them on Seussian adventures that inspire their curiosity. 

Seuss Science Day provides kids with opportunities to learn through Seuss-themed science demonstrations, get creative with special activities, hear popular Dr. Seuss stories, and meet their favorite Seuss characters.
