What If World

a story podcast for kids

 

What If World is a storytelling podcast for kids. Each week, Mr. Eric takes a "what if?" question from a friend and spins it into a story just for you!

298. Abe asks: What if you could play crayons like piano keys? (Meditation)

Not every kid (or grownup) can sit still for a meditation, and that’s okay! Zach leads us in mindfulness practice today, and it’s okay to draw, wiggle, tidy, or walk. Just keep a look out for your space!

Lessons include: Accepting and celebrating ourselves can help us see how amazing others are; our bodies are wise, and we can learn a lot by listening.

29. What if elephants were small and could talk and meerkats were big?

Have you ever heard of the famous talking elephant, Del Efante? When he opens his big trunk to tease Meera the Meerkat, she uses a magic bellows to make elephants and meerkats trade sizes! Can the Howvanna survive a mob of massive meerkats? Will Del Efante learn that creatures of all sizes are important?
