The stories are fulfilling with great values and meet children where they’re at. My toddler was saying the affirmations to herself “I matter” independently after listening and it made my heart swell. Thank you to the wonderful, beautiful h... more

My 2 and 3.5 year old love storytime explorers! They talk about the characters all the time and I love the sweet little lessons in each episode. I also appreciate that they are not overproduced or overstimulating, they are simple stories perfect for young kids.

My 4 year loves these! They’re the perfect length and content for a preschooler! Many other story podcasts are too long and complicated for this age. She gets so excited about these and talks to us about the characters when she sees similarities in her own life. 💗💗💗

We found this perfect little story podcast last month and have enjoyed it. This week I’ve lost my voice, and it has become a big help with our bedtime routine, which has always included me telling stories. So grateful! Also great production quality.
