There’s still plenty of summer left! But for Nickelodeon fans in India, going back to school might not be as hard this year. Nick and BILT Ten-on-Ten are working together to launch a back-to school line of Dora the Explorer and SpongeBob SquarePants notebooks. In addition to being handy for school notes, the notebooks also feature a few “fun pages,” with puzzles, coloring pages, and trivia about their favorite Nicktoons.
PBS Kids’ science-centric gameshow, Fetch with Ruff Ruffman, will be kicking off its fourth season on September 11th. The first episode on that Friday will be an all animated special. Afterward, there will be 20 new episodes, focusing on green science, sports, and sound/light/heat.

“Only YOU can prevent fires” is the famous line. Sometimes it’s about “forrest fires”, sometimes it’s about “wildfires”, but all of the time, it’s delivered by Smokey Bear. As the fire prevention mascot celebrates his 65th birthday, the U.S. Forest Service and the National Association of State Foresters are producing a number of new public service announcements, reminding people to help prevent fires. The PSAs feature a CG Smokey encouraging people to “Get Your Smokey On” and say something when others are acting carelessly. Hey, if a bear told me to help preventing fires, I’d listen!!
