We celebrate every kid’s favorite holiday: Halloween with a musical special full of stories, songs and poems to creep you out and get you ready for the holiday. Settle in for creepy tales from Bill Harley, AJ, and more, plus spine chilling songs from around the globe. It’s a Halloween podcast for kids!
We’ll be spooked by ghost stories told by Bill Harley, Catherine Dines, AJ, and Shomo and the Monkey Bunch. The kids’ crew will share what their Halloween plans are, including a trunk or treat. We’ll hear how one of the kids on the crew turns trick-or-treating into an opportunity to collect clothing for her area’s public school clothing bank.
Happy Halloween from The Children’s Hour!
