debut

From our first show Babes in the Woods KTD! presents an advance clip that will be heard next week when the show debuts on KSKA-FM 91.1 at 2pm, rebroadcasting at 7pm.

Contributor Jessica Cochran (at left) spoke to Martin LeBlanc, Vice President and co-founder (along with Richard Louv) at the Children & Nature Network where their goal is to get kids outside - no matter if they live in urban or rural areas.

As well, Jessica speaks with Carmen Field, an educator and naturalist at the Kachemak Bay Research Reserve, who discusses some of the local barriers that keep Alaska kids inside, and how to overcome them.

Be sure to tune in next Tuesday at 2pm to listen to the debut show of Kids These Days! in its entirety when we'll hear from Jen Aist, author of Babes in the Woods: Hiking, Camping and Boating With Babies and Young Children, we'll hear more from Jessica and also from the folks behind the Chugach Children's Forest.

As always, KTD! wants to hear from you! If you have a question or comment about the show, please let us know: by emailing us.

Next Tuesday, Kids These Days! debuts at 2pm on KSKA-FM 91.1 at 2pm, with a rebroadcast at 7pm. Every Tuesday thereafter KTD will bring you a new topic on raising happy and healthy Alaska kids at these same times.

Alaska public radio devotees have for sure heard the Kids These Days! promos airing on KSKA over the last couple of weeks, and now as the debut of the show is approaching on August 31 at 2pm, we'll be posting more sneak peeks at our first program. Today we have a new promo for you (below) and our new logo (left) which you will soon see incorporated into this website.

Last week the Kids These Days! promos started airing on KSKA. It's exciting for us to hear them play on the air, and we are hoping that our "future listeners" are also anticipating the show's debut. As we near the August 31 debut date, stay tuned to this website for updates about the first show and how YOU can participate!
