Two happy children watching a PBS KIDS program with their mom

It’s upfront season, when brands are making important decisions about their 2024–2025 media partners. We’ve heard from many of you about some key issues you are thinking about. Are you considering these important questions as you plan?

  1. Does your brand want to reach a diverse audience?
    • PBS KIDS generates more Black, Asian, Hispanic & Native American W18–49 w/ kids<12 impressions than any other commercial kids network.*
  2. Is your brand concerned about competitive clutter?
    • PBS KIDS video content is limited to just three sponsors per linear series, and one sponsor pre-roll spot per streaming video. Sponsorship is category-exclusive.
  3. Does your brand want to maximize reach?
    • PBS KIDS has all of the top 10 kids programs against A25-54.**
  4. Is your brand looking to increase sales?
    • Parents are 30% more likely to buy a product for their child if they hear about it from a sponsor on PBS KIDS (vs. buying a product they hear about on a commercial network)***
  5. Does your brand have an educational mission?
    • All PBS KIDS programs are aligned with a mission, including STEM, Social/Emotional Learning, Literacy, Arts, Culture and Social Studies.
