PBS Kids is a staple at our household. The family friendly shows are great and, dare I say, even entertaining for me. I downloaded the video app for a last resort measure on long car rides. We have only had to use it once so far. Thankfully, my son has not requested the app again on other car rides, though I don’t think that is a statement about the app’s quality. It has all of his favorite shows.
