Apples to Zebras

WGTE presents Apples to Zebras, an amazing way to get young learners excited about their ABCs — and exploring area landmarks!

Each episode focus on one letter of the alphabet, as host Kelsey Kaczala takes viewers on tours of the places that make this region special. 

There's singing, learning and fun for kids and grown-ups alike.

There's also a special flip deck that continues the literacy learning in a fun, engaging way. Watch this space for all things Apples to Zebras.

Watch for Apples to Zebras events for families and teachers, made possible by the Board of Lucas County Commissioners.
