Last Week: Falling Into Autumn
This time on The Children’s Hour we are falling into autumn in the northern hemisphere. We learn the science about equinoxes, and hear from 5th graders on learning different perspectives about the fall holidays: Labor Day, Mexican Independence Day, and Columbus Day. It’s all mixed with great music.
This Week: Fossils
Learn about fossils in a Kids Crew field trip to a secret fossil quarry in the mountains outside of Albuquerque. Then Amadeus chats with New Mexico Natural History Museum educator Mike Sanchez to learn how fossils are created. Discover how fossils can teach us about the Ice Age and climate change from Dr. Emily Lindsey at the La Brea Tar pits. This episode comes with a Learn-Along guide and is mixed with great music. Learn with us!

Next Week: Kids Global Music
Get into the world groove with The Children’s Hour as we explore global music for kids. We hear some radio debuts of songs that teach, inspire, and entertain, performed by musicians from around the world. We hear from bands on every continent (except Antarctica!) singing in multiple languages and playing a wide variety of instruments. Join us for a musical exploration of world music for kids!
