In each episode, they meet famous people like the child pharaoh Tutankhamen or Joan of Arc and their animal companions.

Picture Dots
by New York Hall of Science
Take pictures of things you do in your everyday life and use these pictures to have fun conversations about what you notice. Add colorful dots to your picture that allow you to type text, assign music notes or silly sounds, and record noises. Educators can use Picture Dots to engage learners in practicing early learning skills by integrating Picture Dots with fun, hands-on activities such as interacting with books, making predictions in a science experiment, or creating patterns with natural materials.
