Brains On
Fun, entertaining and engaging weekly podcast teaching all about science and the world. This is a fun podcast teaching about science and the world. The show's mission is to encourage kids’ natural curiosity and wonder using science and history. Parents stream the podcast for about half an hour per episode. Parents love how curious the kid co-host gets into the subject, and how entertaining and educational these podcasts are. Not the best for parents that would rather not stream podcasts for children.
Grades: Any age
Cost: Free :) But encouraged to donate to American Public Media.
