PBS Kids: All Grown Up

You didn't think your favorite PBS Kids characters were stuck in time, did you?

PBS Kids: All Grown Up

Ever wondered where your favorite PBS Kid’s Characters ended up? While you were growing up and moving on, so were your childhood friends.

Arthur:

Arthur graduated early from a prestigious University, and is now running as the Republican candidate for mayor for his hometown, Elwood.

DW

DW was always a bit of a brat, and has been called other B words more recently. She goes by just “Dora” now, and is currently attending Indiana University as an English major. She always did have a way with words.

Clifford:

Clifford shrunk in his old age to about the size of a mini van, and is now more of a coral color. He’s happily retired on Birdwell Island.

The Dragon Tales Gang:

Max and Emmy were always very convincing (their mom actually believed they played in their playroom all day, for goodness sakes) and grew up to star in a brother-sister infomercial for quesadilla makers.

We're pretty sure that the rest of the gang lives happily in Dragonland. That is, if Zack and Wheezy were separated before the age of 12.

Teletubbies:

The teletubbies gang cancelled their show and moved their separate ways after “creative differences”. Po, the most famous Teletubby, and the baby sun (all grown up, of course) eloped after many years of friendship turned into true love.

Zoboomafoo:

Unfortunately, as you may have heard, our dear friend Zoboomafoo passed away last November at the age of 20 from kidney failure. Looks like he’s going on a trip without us this time.

Elmo:

Elmo’s voice did eventually drop, around the same age most boys’ do. He put some clothes on as well, and is now working as a dolphin trainer show at the Shedd Aquarium, with his pal Dorothy.

Cyberchase:

Matt grew up to be just as attractive as you thought he would, and decided to put his hacking skills to good use as a computer science major. The girls, it turns out, didn't really like math, and after helping Inez with a fashion makeover, Jackie started her own line of clothing.

Caillou:

Caillou unfortunately never grew hair, and started an alopecia awareness club in college. He graduated with a communications degree and got a job as a spokesperson for Bosley, the hair transplant surgery company.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
