Delightful & Educational

This is the kind of show every kid should be listening to. It takes you on a tour of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander nations, teaching you a few words inthe various languages and hearing them tell their stories. It's a great resource for young kids to check out with their families.

It’s so much fun

If you like Bluey and it’s got to be done you will love this podcast. A podcast that makes me think of Arthur’s a word from kids and Bluey mixed in one and it’s so much fun. Hooray. I will listen to this a lot.
