Noodle Loaf - Music Education Podcast for Kids - Podcast Rankings and reviews

Super smart and fun (and often funny) songs! Perfect length for kids’ attention span! Doodles and art appreciation with music! Lots of learning about rhythm and rhyming and improvisation! Inclusivity and empathy and caring about the world around us in ways kids can start to understand! My six year old and I love this podcast. A must-follow for kids and grown growns alike.

Our family (adults and kids) loves Noodleloaf. Our only complaint is that we’ve run out of new episodes 😂. Easily our #1 podcast and we are also proud Patreon supporters. Thank you Dan Saks for this wonderfu, interactive, fun podcast!

I have worked as a music educator, and I was thrilled to find this for my own 4 year old. Through silliness and fun, he is practicing rhythm, listening skills, pitch matching, and lyric play (which of course also fosters his literacy skills). He is also hearing themes of inclusivity reinforced in natural ways.

I wasn’t sure my 2.5 yo was old enough for this, but she was hooked after the very first episode I played for her. She loves the Name That Sound segment and the songs about the lonely t-Rex and the donkey farm. Some of the stuff is a bit advanced for her, but she’s learning and listening the whole time.

My daughter and I discovered this podcast during the pandemic. In December of 2020, we drove from Boston to Los Angeles to move my parents with us. Noodle Loaf saved us and I will forever be grateful.

It makes me sad that Dan dropped this podcast without warning. For the past few years he makes an episode when he needs to promote his work. I get it but little kids don’t. My daughter, who is autistic, is eight years old and is always asking for new episodes. I was even a Patreon subscriber but stopped when Dan fell off the face of the earth. Dan doesn’t owe his fans anything but a nice goodbye.
