The first-ever Cat in the Hat Christmas special, The Cat in the Hat Knows A Lot About Christmas, will make its PBS Kids premiere on November 21 accompanied by a new online game and DVD.

The one-hour Christmas special, which helps kids ages two to eight and their parents discover natural science concepts, follows popular characters Cat, Nick and Sally on a journey around the world to help a lost reindeer find his way home in time for Christmas.

In advance of the TV launch, a new online game, Freezeyourknees, Follow Me, Please!, will be available at PBSKIDS.org/catinthehat from November 7. The three-level game lets users play as Cat in the Hat as he helps guide Ralph the Reindeer home in the not-so-reliable Thinga-ma-jigger vehicle.

In addition, distributor NCircle has released The Cat in the Hat Knows A Lot About Christmas on DVD, which is now available at retailers across the US.
