Something strange is happening at the Museum. PBS Kids' ODD SQUAD needs YOUR help to get our doors back to normal this summer.
ABOUT THE EVENT
Your Epic Adventure just got bigger! Doors all around the world are opening into odd locations – snowstorms, jungles, deserts, desserts (OK, no one is complaining about that door), underwater, outer space, upside-down rooms, and more!
The ODD SQUAD needs ODD SQUAD Trainees to help!
Here’s what we know. There are four different colored buttons that control Dr. Di Mension’s machine. To shut it down, the buttons need to be pressed in the right sequence. But we don’t know the sequence!
Dr. Di Mension did leave some shut down instructions, but they are incomplete. Go to each of the four experiments that she was working on in her lab and use your math and problem-solving skills to gather from each experiment. These will provide the clues you need to figure out the button order to shut down her machine.
Make a pit stop on your Epic Adventure to get the doors back to normal.
In partnership with Fred Rogers Productions, PBS Kids and Houston Public Media.
