Curious George's Emmy award-winning PBS Kids TV series is back with more gadgets, gizmos and games than ever! In George's world, there are all sorts of things to explore and play with: toys, machines and even tools. And even better, George can use everyday things to create his own inventions. Challenge your child's imagination with the world's most curious monkey.

What better way to explore tools, gadgets and inventions than through the misadventures of Curious George! This crafty little monkey has his hands - and feet - in everything, and discovering tools to get a job done is one of his favorite pastimes. Watch George as he transforms himself into a robot, creates a periscope to spy on the Man in the Yellow Hat, learns to ride a bike to deliver newspapers, and much more. Through George's many victories and defeats, children learn that tools are often necessary to complete a job, solve a problem, or improve a situation. And George's adventures show children that tools can be fun, too!

Any child that is curious about the way things work will love this video. Each episode shows George discovering and mastering a new tool or creating a tool to suit his needs when there is not one available. Following each episode is a clip of real kids creating their own tools, just like George. The creativity and excitement that is part of each episode is sure to inspire innovation in your child.

My nephews love tools, and the tools and gadgets that George comes up with were endlessly entertaining for them. But the fun didn't stop there. This video inspired a long list of craft projects that are sure to keep us busy well into the future. I expect on my next visit we will set to work making a periscope and spying on each other in the backyard!
