We know your children love Curious George - this little monkey has an insatiable curiosity about the natural world that they share with enthusiasm! The CURIOUS GEORGE® series takes full advantage of this natural curiosity, using George to motivate children to expand their own investigations of the world. George's memorable adventures -- from dismantling clocks to rounding up errant bunnies -- offer the perfect vehicles for introducing preschoolers to key concepts in science, engineering, math, and social studies.

By embracing children's natural curiosity, parents can support their educational potential in the fields of science, engineering, and mathematics. So while George is nurturing children's innate tendencies toward inquiry and hands-on exploration, he is also motivating parents and caregivers to do the same. We've collected some wonderful resources for parents and children to explore together. Click on the "activities and more" section to find hands-on activities, online games, and video that will help you and your child get curious!
