Celebrate Mom with The Children’s Hour in a musical Mother’s Day special. We feature some of our favorite songs by Kindie artists honoring mothers, and we hear poetry about the special bond between kids and our moms. Happy Mother’s Day to all who celebrate from The Children’s Hour.

This episode was produced by Katie Stone, with production support from Sarah Gabrielli, McKenzie Graunke and Thaniel Lentz.

The Children’s Hour is distributed by Native Voice One: The Native American Radio Network.
