Kids & Family

Enter the world of Jim Henson's "Construction Site," a special place beyond the fence where, through the antics of the machines, children are exposed to important messages about the nature of learning, thinking, and behaving. Children learn along with Digs and his friends as they find out the importance of certain beliefs, strategies, and behaviors for learning and doing their best. Together, they discover that we can all think smarter and learn better.
