What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

Our family (grown ups and 4&8yo) LOOOOOOOVE this show. I am always interested in how parenting works in different cultures and I learned at one point that a lot of cultures don’t reprimand their children but tell them moral stories instead to teach them… and when I came across this, I was so delighted. Such a gem!

Thank you for your beautiful show. My 8 year old & I love hearing your stories & enjoy the music so much in the car that we end up taking the longest route just to finish the episode. We loved the episode of the spotted goat!

Dr DiQ · Dec 2024

My 7 and 3 year old love listening to these stories in the car and also during meals. They also love the coloring pages!

My daughter thinks that it is amazing, she listens to it every night before bed. I will say that the add breaks make it a little bit annoying but other than that, it is great. Definitely 5 starts. Highly recommend.😀
