FOR KIDS: PBS KIDS PODCASTS
PBS Kids offers podcasts for your favorite shows! Check out podcasts from Odd Squad, Work it Out Wombats, Molly of Denali, and more! Or try Jamming on the Job, a podcast all about different career paths, themed to music.


FOR PARENTS: BENEFITS OF PODCASTS
Podcasts are a great way for your family to learn together. Whether you are on a car ride or relaxing at home, podcasts help boost children's listening comprehension skills, creativity, and imagination. PBS Kids podcasts are paired with games and activities so the fun doesn’t have to stop once the track does!


FOR EDUCATORS: TEACHING WITH PODCASTS
Looking for a new way to engage your class? Your next assignment could be a podcast! Creating podcasts helps students learn how to work in groups, and convey a message using only words. It’s like an oral essay! Creating a podcast is also a great way to modify a writing assignment for students who have difficulty with written tasks.

Meet Carl, a warm-hearted raccoon who loves collecting things. Carl’s attention to detail, distinctive way of looking at the world, and extensive collections help him solve problems around Fuzzytown with his friends, Sheldon, Lotta, Nico, Arugula and Forrest.

Available in English and Spanish.
