CrewPictureKIDS4 is the name of an after-school program run by Sun Prairie Media Center. The program consists of about 50 to 70 children per year divided into groups of six to ten. The groups meet once a week for an hour to design, create, and produce their own programs.

Though each crew of kids is assigned an adult crew leader and a high school-aged crew assistant, the work they do is entirely their own. The kids in KIDS4 write, record, produce, direct, and edit their own programs. Using this hands-on approach KIDS4 hopes to teach children about the power of the television medium.

KIDS4 also promotes volunteerism in the Sun Prairie community, working with the kids in KIDS4 to record events around the community. KIDS4 empowers the children of Sun Prairie, giving them a voice in Sun Prairie.

The 2023-2024 KIDS-4 year consists of the following crews:

Breakfast for Dinner

Cereal Before Milk

Emo Kids

I Don’t Know

Penguin Apocalypse

The Ducktectives

The Group Called Group

Thursday Night Live (TNL)
