Family Night: ‘Nature Cat’ double feature

Tally ho! It’s a Nature Cat double feature this weekend! PBS KIDS Family Night will be full of nature-exploring, learning about the ocean, following a map to find a hidden treasure and someone named “Bad Dog Bart.”

On Oct. 2, 3 and 4, join us for “Nature Cat: The Return of Bad Dog Bart” at 7 p.m. and “Nature Cat: Ocean Commotion” at 8 p.m.

Watch all your PBS KIDS favorites on the free PBS KIDS Video app, online at azpbs.org/kids or on air on Arizona PBS KIDS (channel 8.4 with antenna, Cox Cable channel 81, CenturyLink Prism channel 22 and Suddenlink channel 14).
