I know a lot of adults who love listening to podcasts, but did you know there are tons out there geared towards children? Podcasts allow kids to practice their listening skills, learn science, current news and fun facts, or engage in a wonderful story. It’s a great addition to your days at home over the next few weeks, and your kids will love it, I’m sure!
