10 Kids Podcasts for Your Family

14 Jul
Spread the love
Tweet

Are you and your kids into podcasts?  I know I am personally and love to listen to them while working, but my kids haven’t really gotten into them… YET!   In preparation for an upcoming road trip where I will be 100% prepared for the “Are we there yet?” challenge, I’ll have compiled a list of 10 kids podcasts to listen to on the road.  Podcasts are a fun way to get information, learn about something new, laugh, or even just hear stories being told.  So, here’s my kids podcasts picks that we are going to try to listen to while on the road as a family!

Pants on Fire

Pants on Fire is a game show format so if you like that, you’ll like this!  Kids will try to figure out which adult is the actual expert and who’s just pretending.  Debra Goldstein hosts with her sidekick “robot” and there’s music and sound throughout to keep the kids entertained.   With wide-ranging topics, there’s something for everyone.  It’s a great concept that’s really well executed.
Suggested for ages 6-11.

Brains On

Host Molly Bloom is joined in each episode by a different kid co-host who helps interview scientists and takes questions from kids all over the country.  Lots of fun and laughs in each episode along with learning of course. There’s also this thing called “Stumpers” that are mystery sounds submitted by kids across the country and it’s a fun interactive thing for your kids to participate in!
Suggested for ages 6-13.

BOREDOM BUSTERS

Dream Big

A refreshing show with great enegry and positivity, Eva Karpman hosts and she’s only 7 years old!  I like this pick because my daughter just graduated 2nd grade and I think it’s great to see that she could do this too! Eva also brings along her mom, Olga, to interview special guests including astronauts, entreprenuers, artists, and so many more… She learns about their passions and the journeys it took to get to where they are today!  The shows message is to follow your dreams and do whatever inspires you!
Suggested for all ages.

The Story Pirates

Who doesn’t love zany stories?  Especially kids?  The “pirates” in the podcast are actually actors, comedians, improvisors, and musicians who share lots of enthusiasm and laughs.  The stories they tell are actually written by kids who are also brought onto the show to share a little about themselves.  This is fun for all ages and your kids might be hooked after one episode.  This is more for fun than education, but we all need a good creative break sometimes!
Suggested for all ages.

Bookclub for Kids

Bookclub for Kids started in 2017 and has a rotating panel of middle-schoolers who chat with host Kitty Felde about books, both non-fiction and fiction.  The conversations they have encourage deep thinking, taking in current events,  creativity, and more!   There’s also a celebrity guest reader featured in every episode.  You can also find a list of recommended books on their website!
Suggested for kids elementary and middle school age who love to read.

SUMMER BUCKET LIST

Tumble – A Science Podcast for Kids

Tumble is a science podcast for kids that will be enjoyed by the entire family.   Here you’ll find stories about scientific discoveries with help from scientists!  Hosted by Lindsay and Marshall, you’ll find answers to questions, hear mysteries, and learn what science is all about!
Suggested for all ages.

What If World

This is a great storytelling podcast for kids.  What if a tiny dragon lived in my closet? Or there were a never-ending bowl of ice cream? And maybe cats ruled the world? Join Abacus P Grumbler, Randall Radbot, and Whendiana Joan as they help Mr. Eric tell wacky stories inspired by your questions! Call to leave a voicemail at 205-605-WHAT and be featured on the show.

Mr. Eric is your host and your guide through What If World! One day after a really good sneeze, Mr. Eric opened his eyes and saw giant turtles wandering along the highway and pretzel trees twisting up to the clouds. He was in What If World! He made it back home, but he still visits What If World every so often to find out the answers to all your questions…

CREATIVE WAYS TO START THE DAY

The stories on the podcast are told by Mr. Eric, but he’s not the only one that can get to What If World. You can, too! What If World is right there in your imagination! Visit the What If World twitter (@whatifworldpod) or use the Generator to find a question that might help you tell a story of your own!
*From their website*

Noodle Loaf

This is a musical-themed podcast that is also aims to teach kids about science. If you are looking for serious science, this might not be your thing.  It’s got great silly songs and they’ll learn a thing or two along the way.  At only about 10-min each, this is the perfect podcast for the lower attentions spans.
Suggested fro pre-school +.

Wow in the World

The first of kids podcasts from NPR comes from hosts Guy Raz (How I Built This) and Mindy Thomas who lead listeners through a conversation around the most incredible kid-friendly news stories of the week. Each episode starts off with a bunch of questions about a new scientific discovery or finding and then are answered through comedy and debate.

But Why

But Why is a show led by you, kids!  Kids ask the question and But Why finds the answers. It’s a big interesting world out there.  Here you’ll hear about large and small topics, nature, words and even the apocalypse.  Send them your questions and include your child’s name, age and town and you might get your question answered!  Adults send the audio file (recording of your child asking their question) to questions@butwhykids.org.

I hope you find this list of kids podcasts helpful and a way to fill anytime you might have in the car with your kids!  Hey you can even listen to these at home during no tech times!  Try one, try all and let me know what you think!

A little about me…

Hey There! I'm Abby. Some people started calling me "Little Miss Martha" a few years back and this blog followed. I started it to share my DIY wedding progress, but it's now evolved to include other good things. Read More…

This year I wanted to create a fun tablescape for This year I wanted to create a fun tablescape for Easter, and while I love bunnies, I thought a carrot theme would be fun to try!  Everything on this tablescape was 🥕carrot-fully 🤪 selected for its color or carrot looks! 

What’s your favorite thing?! I loved using the fresh carrots 🥕around the flowers 🌷and the carrot paper plates! 

And I reused a lot of things too!  Old plates for the place settings, Christmas greenery fills out the middle, and orange tapers I had on hand helped!  You don’t have to buy new all the time!  Most times I’m using things I have on hand from other holidays or previous years!  I created the carrot bunting with help of my @cricut but you can easily cut carrots out of felt by hand if you don’t have a cricut! Then we made some homemade carrot cookies with cookie cutters I found at @target and a carrot cake! The Bunny Bait Easter tablescape  came together pretty easy and I love the brightness of it all!  And we won’t even be around for Easter to use but if you come by, you will still see it all sitting on my table!  hahah.

When Ella came downstairs on Friday she asked wher When Ella came downstairs on Friday she asked where all the green was and why there were no leprechaun traps…Apparently she has St Patrick’s Day expectations. I blame myself. I’m usually more into it…
So about 11am I kicked it into gear and headed to @partycity for a little help!  Thankfully they had these green pots for $5 and grass for $1!  Plus, green candy and gold coins!  And Olive found the surprise at the end of the rainbow when she came home!

While I should really be sharing about styling for While I should really be sharing about styling for St. Patrick's Day, Spring, & Easter, instead I'm going to take a minute to brag on these little girls of ours...
 
We got the sweetest voicemail from Olive's teacher that was a total proud parent moment.  Her class has gotten a new little girl who doesn't speak any English and somehow Olive communicates just fine with her, makes sure she has someone to play with at recess and has basically taken the new little girl under her wing.  Her teacher was sending kudos to Olls for just "being the kindest kiddo" which is what we all want to hear about our kids, right?! She also thanked us for all we are doing to have made her that way and let's be honest, I have no clue what that is, but I'll take it! 

And Ella... Ella!  She's been rocking her “new” schedule.  In the last couple months, we've realized busier is better for her and so going from not much of anything to 3 busy nights a week, which one this week included lots of squats and major quad soreness, she's done with no complaints!  Minus for her sore quads... She's been taking on new activities and challenges with style and we are so proud of her for being so mature and committed! 

Ok, so proud momma moment over. I don’t do this often, but felt this one was worth a share!  And seriously... It's been a good week for them and I love watching them grow and take on whatever life throws at them.  Do you have any proud momma moments to share from this week?!

Happy Saturday! Do you ever feel like you’ve go Happy Saturday!  Do you ever feel like you’ve gotten to the end of the week and done nothing for yourself?! That’s me. This is basically every week anymore – clean, cook, get steps in, take care of kids, drive here, drive there, etc. 

Where does all the time go!? Seriously, before Covid, I would do 10,000 things AND take the girls to and fro non-stop AND drive home every weekend sometimes… basically I was doing sooo much more, maybe too much!  But now, I feel like I can’t keep up.  I can’t find a groove where I can still do all the things for my family AND myself.  Were we really doing too much?  It didn’t feel like it in the moment. Yes, there were exhausting days, but somehow, they were usually fulfilling.  Or maybe I’m dreaming?  Now, most days just feel like groundhog day. 

But at the beginning of the year I set goals and I’m still working towards them.  Health & Wellness goals, home goals, family goals and more.  I am working to keep my WHY in mind and find my daily inspiration. I just hope that I can find a groove where even if I don’t complete all the goals, at least I feel like I’ve made progress on them.  And I hope that throughout this super weird, busy, boring, what feels like an uneventful time in my life, I can find fulfillment in it and stay motivated. 

Working to stay inspired can be the hardest part!  So long post short, if you’ve read this far, I’m sorry I haven’t been sharing as much.  I’m working on it and things to share but finding time to sit down and actually give you something enjoyable has been the hardest part lately!  Stick along as I’m sure things will continue to be shared in an untimely fashion!

How did you celebrate Valentine’s day?! I set up How did you celebrate Valentine’s day?! I set up a quick little Valentine’s Day table for the girls and a quick and sweet activity!  I grabbed some peach rings and gummie lifesavers for the girls to add to some strips of fabric I had laying around!  A pretty simple setup but a nice suprise for them! 

Other than that, cut felt hearts for the place settings, added small heart boxes under conversation hearts, and used vintage floral tea plates for the necklaces!  The runner was found at @homegoods and was the basis for the whole setup!

Taking time for ourselves can be REALLY HARD. The Taking time for ourselves can be REALLY HARD.  The other night I was ready to go upstairs and read my book…the one I’ve been working on forever… and noticed the basket(s) of laundry needing folded so I decided to do that instead of taking a moment for myself.  By the time I was done, I was so tired that I just went to bed.  So LAST night I decided not to skimp on the “me” time and knew I needed to get out of the house and enjoy some laughs with the neighborhood girls!  It was good for the soul!

I have a hard time doing things for myself.  I feel like I’m being selfish.  But it’s not selfish to take care of yourself!  It’s NECESSARY!  You can’t take care of others if you aren’t taking care of yourself. I’m really loving my weekly emails from @inspiringwomenfh and how they are a reminder that I need to take a moment for myself!  So do something for yourself today.  Take a walk around the block, unless you live in Indiana, I suggest you stay inside because the winds are CRAY!  Read a book on your lunch break, take a nap with your kids, or maybe even listen to a podcast or practice 10 min of mediation!

If you haven’t already, check out inspiringwomen.org for some awesome inspiration, motivation and great resources for overall health and wellness.  There are also some GREAT recipes!  The program is free and you will even get their bi-annual inspiring magazine!  It’s just the right amount of inspiration that your week could use!
