Traditions come to life as children play the games, eat the foods, sing the songs, wear the costumes and celebrate with people from many different countries and backgrounds. The origin of each holiday is traced and explained so that young children can easily understand the concepts. Note: Program #11, Earth Day, will air in the block feed schedule only.
