Embracing Tradition: Cultural Horizons: TV Schedule: Rocky Mountain PBS

The children at the Exploratorium see three family events involving a variety of traditions: a birthday celebrated by an extended family, a Quinceanera celebration marking the 15th birthday of a Mexican- American girl, and an adoptive family?s observance of Coming Home Day,commemorating the day their son arrived from Russia. Then, a visit to a family?s hunting camp illustrates how Wisconsin?s landscape, geography, and climate influences significant regional rituals.
