A Place of Our OwnKCET’s A Place of Our Own (and Los Niños en Su Casa) is a daily television series, a website, and an extensive outreach program devoted to the unique needs of people who care for children. Family, friends and neighbors – everyone who takes care of young children – are child care providers. Every interaction and every activity of these adults with their charges provide valuable opportunities to help children learn and grow. A Place of Our Own shares ways for us all to help children acquire cognitive, social, emotional and physical skills, as well as nurture language and literacy development.
