Sid the Science Kid’s “Technology & Engineering Week” starts today, running from December 5th – 9th, with new episodes that have a special focus on inspiring young children to take an interest in science. The kick off episode, “I Want to Be a Scientist” stars Emmy award-winning actress, America Ferrera as the voice of Dr. Rosalinda Cordova.
The week begins with Sid and friends taking a trip to the Science Center where they learn more about real world scientists in their own lives including Gabriela’s mom Dr. Cordova and her exciting job as a marine biologist. As the week of new episodes continues, the kids learn about computers from Sid’s mom (who’s a computer engineer), research whether the moon is made of green cheese, investigate flight and learn how to “engineer a solution” when their ball gets stuck in a tree!
