With its incredible creativity and high-quality storytelling, it captivates children of all ages and leaves them wanting more. This podcast is highly recommended for anyone looking to inspire curiosity and spark a love for learning in their children.
One of the best aspects of The Penny & Luck: Inventing Stuff is the way it encourages kids and teens to ask questions and dive into research to find answers.
