Curious Kids Every Day: A Daily Educational Podcast

en us
Do you have a curious kid who asks you a million questions every day? Curious Kids Every Day is an intentionally slow paced and interactive daily podcast for kids AND their parents! My goal is to make learning fun for the whole family. My name is Josh. I am a dad of 4 who loves to learn and teach. I am grateful for all of the families who make Curious Kids Every Day a part of their daily routine. I have noticed that most children's shows these days (even the educational ones) are so loud, fast, and dumbed down. I guess they've always been that way to a degree, but it is definitely worse now than when I was a kid. This show is meant to reclaim a little bit of the sincerity and intentionality of the best of children's programming. Specifically, I am inspired by Mister Rogers' Neighborhood and Blue's Clues. I like how those shows are slow paced, how they talk directly to the kids, and how they respect the listener's intelligence. I intend for Curious Kids Every Day to do the same thing. Basically, I am making the kind of show that I want my kids to enjoy. Give this show a shot and watch how engaged your kid gets! I was amazed the first time that I played it for my kids. Audio has a unique ability to capture the imagination in a way that screens just cannot. Thank you for taking the time to read this, and I hope that your family enjoys Curious Kids Every Day! For more information about the show, along with a free printable with activity ideas that don't involve screens: https://curiouskidseveryday.com For activity sheets for every new episode of the show, go to: https://supportcuriouskids.com
