Last Week: Whales
This time on The Children’s Hour we’re learning about the largest animal to ever live on Earth, which still roams the oceans today: whales. Once hunted to near extinction, some whales are making a comeback, while others remain critically endangered. Learn through stories, poems, songs, and a chat with a whale researcher studying the songs whales sing. Comes with a learning guide!
This Week: Mom
It’s that time of year when we honor our mothers. Mother’s Day is May 10, 2026 and we have a musical special to celebrate our mothers, motherhood, and the special women in our lives who make us feel like we belong and are loved. Honor your mother with The Children’s Hour!
Next Week: Banned Books
This time on The Children’s Hour, our summer interns Julia Wolfe and Sophie Anderson-Haynie have co-written and produced a program about Banned Books. They teach us what that means, the history of banning books, and how it’s even possible in the era of digital reading, and with the First Amendment right to free speech. This episode comes with a new learning guide.Â
