Podcasts about kids podcasts

Send us Fan MailAI can feel like magic until you look closer and realize it's built on choices, data, and a whole lot of guessing. For our Season 3 finale of AI for Kids, we pull together the biggest takeaways from the season and turn them into simple, usable rules kids can remember and grown-ups can support at home, in libraries, and in classrooms. The bottom line stays the same: you don't have to fear artificial intelligence, but you do have to think, pause, and stay curious.We talk about what AI literacy for kids really means beyond “typing a good prompt.” It's the habit of asking better questions: Did this help me learn or just hand me an answer? Does it sound true or do I need to verify it? We also revisit why data literacy matters so much, with everyday examples like checking the weather, budgeting money, and forecasting toward a goal. Those small moments teach kids how to reason with information, which is exactly what they need when they face AI hype, viral screenshots, or content that might be misinformation.Then we get real about safety and boundaries. We unpack why human-like chatbots and character AI can be unhealthy when kids start treating a word generator like a person, and why “easy” is often a warning sign for sloppy or wrong. We also explore AI toys and hyper-personalization, including how a talking toy that follows one interest can shrink imagination instead of expanding it. For parents and teachers, we share a practical “parent in the loop” mindset: define the goal, choose tools built for kids and stay involved as the tech changes.If this season helped your family, subscribe, share the show with a friend, and leave a review so more parents, teachers, and caregivers can find it.

The podcast content may contain sensitive topics. Listener discretion is advised.When the nation woke up to breaking news about a 19‑year‑old from Ohio allegedly plotting an attack on the UFC Freedom event in Washington, D.C., most people saw a headline. But behind that headline was a terrified mother who made an unthinkably brave choice: she contacted law enforcement and handed over the evidence that stopped a potential mass‑casualty attack. Her courage saved lives.What investigators uncovered was chilling. A young man pulled into an online extremist network that fed his anger,validated his darkest thoughts, and encouraged him to gather weapons, drones, and ammunition. This wasn't random. It was targeted, strategic, and rooted in the same digital grooming tactics used to recruit vulnerable teens every day.On this episode of the Protect & Prevent Podcast (P3 Kids), Opal Singleton Hendershot of MillionKids.org, one of the leading voices in keeping kids safe from predators, breaks down how online radicalization actually happens.The psychology, the grooming, the platforms, and the victim profiles extremists look for. We'll show parents the early warning signs that something is wrong, the subtle shifts that signal a child is being pulled into a dangerous ideology, and the digital spaces where predators and extremist groupsquietly recruit.This isn't fear‑mongering. It's prevention. And it starts with understanding how one mother's courage prevented a tragedy and how awareness can protect countless other families.For more info and to donate to this 501(c)3 charity, you can reach Million Kids at:Website: https://MillionKids.orgEmail: info@MillionKids.orgBe sure to follow and like our posts on:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/IEMillionKidsInstagram: https://instagram.com/MillionKidsTeen

In this Postcard from Earth, Mozi sends a letter home about one of the strangest Earth rituals he has encountered yet. While observing a group of young humans on a grassy field, Mozi becomes convinced that a mysterious black-and-white sphere is the victim of a planet-wide misunderstanding. Why is everyone kicking it? Why does only one human seem willing to pick it up? And why does everyone cheer when it ends up in a giant net?This hilarious alien correspondence is packed with laugh-out-loud observations and the wonderfully upside-down perspective that only Flip and Mozi can bring. As they try to make sense of a youth soccer game, our curious extraterrestrials uncover a classic case of Earth culture being much stranger than it first appears!Along the way, Flip and Mozi learn how easy it is to misunderstand something when you're seeing it for the very first time. From goalkeepers and sidelines to juice-box breaks and team uniforms, every part of the game becomes a source of confusion, comedy, and curiosity. It's the kind of earthling encounter that makes you look at familiar things in a completely new way!Flip & Mozi is the hit podcast from Tinkercast, the creators of Wow in the World, featuring original music from Grammy-nominated artists The Pop Ups. Each episode, aliens Flip and Mozi crash-land into a new animal encounter as they try to figure out what it means to be an earthling. From mammals to insects to sea creatures to reptiles, every curious creature they meet teaches them, and their listeners, something new about Earth and the important role animals play in our ecosystem. It's a nature and animal podcast for kids that keeps animal conservation in your family's conversations.Grownups, want to keep the Wow going?

In this episode of Mind the Kids, the podcast from the Association for Child and Adolescent Mental Health (ACAMH), host Dr. Clara Faria — academic clinical fellow in child psychiatry — is joined by Alina Marinca, PhD student in Psychological Medicine at Queen Mary University of London and clinical psychologist, whose research is funded by the London Interdisciplinary School of Science Doctoral Training Partnership.Alina shares findings from her JCPP Advances paper  ‘Sleep disturbance as a transdiagnostic marker of children's mental health difficulties: A network analysis of item-level associations between different types of sleep problems and different behavioural and emotional symptoms'.The study draws on data from the Development of Emotional Resilience observational cohort — a school-based sample of over 500 primary school children aged 7 to 12 from East London, one of the most ethnically diverse and economically deprived urban cohorts in UK child mental health research.Using network analysis — a powerful statistical approach that maps relationships between symptoms simultaneously — the study examines how specific sleep problems relate to emotional difficulties (anxiety and depression) and behavioural difficulties (hyperactivity, inattention, and conduct problems) in middle childhood, moving beyond the composite sleep scores that have dominated previous research.The headline finding is striking: sleep anxiety and general anxiety emerge as the most central, influential nodes in the network — sitting at the core of children's emotional and behavioural difficulties and functioning as a transdiagnostic mechanism across multiple mental health conditions. Emotional symptoms were found to be more tightly interwoven with sleep problems than behavioural symptoms, a developmentally meaningful finding with direct implications for how we assess and treat sleep disturbances in primary school-aged children.Alina and Clara discuss what this means for school-based mental health intervention, why sleep should no longer be treated as a secondary or peripheral feature of child mental health, and how a modular, targeted approach focusing on sleep-related anxiety could benefit children, parents, educators, and clinicians alike. The episode closes with a preview of Alina's next research phase: a longitudinal network analysis tracking whether these core sleep and anxiety symptoms remain stable over time.Essential listening for anyone working in child mental health, sleep research, school-based intervention, or child and adolescent psychiatry.Read the CAMH journal paper ‘Sleep disturbance as a transdiagnostic marker of children's mental health difficulties: A network analysis of item-level associations between different types of sleep problems and different behavioural and emotional symptoms'Alina A.

On this episode of the Protect & Prevent Podcast (P3 Kids), Opal Singleton Hendershot of MillionKids.org, one of the leading voices in keeping kids safe from predators, looks at the most important conversation you can have with your teen and what to say.You are holding one of the most powerful devices in human history. A phone or tablet isn't just a gadget, it's a doorway to more than five billion people around the world. No generation before you has ever had this kind of access, influence, or opportunity.And I'm giving it to you because I believe in you.I trust your judgment.I trust your character.I trust the choices you will make when no one is watching. Every click, every comment, every message shapes how the world sees you and how you see yourself. Your digital reputation is your choice. Online, you will meet people who inspire you and people who will try to influence you. Some will tell thetruth. Some will lie. Some will use deepfakes, pressure, or manipulation to get what they want. But you get to choose: what you believe, what you share, what you reject and who you become.When you see someone being bullied, blackmailed, or humiliated online, you have a choice. You can pile on or you can show empathy, knowing that with deepfake technology, anyone could be targeted next. You can delete harmful images… or you can spread them and add to someone's pain. Empathy or cruelty, you get to choose.Your choices matter. They shape the digital world you live in.At the same time, the most powerful words you will ever hear are the ones you say to yourself. If you believe you are strong, capable, and valuable, you are more likely to act like it. If you believe you are unlovable or alone, you become vulnerable to anyone who offers attention. Never hand your self‑worth to strangers online.You are valuable because you decide you are valuable.As your parent, I will monitor your online world but you're smart. You know how to get around things. That's why trust matters more than filters. I trust you to make the right choices. I trust you to come to me if something goes wrong. And I promise to stay calm, listen, and work through it with you.You are the first generation with this kind of power. Never before has a young person had so much opportunity for good or for harm. And the choice is yours.And I believe you will choose well. For more info and to donate tothis 501(c)3 charity, you can reach Million Kids at:Website: https://MillionKids.orgEmail: info@MillionKids.orgBe sure to follow and like our posts on:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/IEMillionKidsInstagram: https://instagram.com/MillionKidsTeen

In this episode of Mind the Kids, the podcast from the Association for Child and Adolescent Mental Health (ACAMH), host Dr. Clara Faria — academic clinical fellow in child psychiatry — is joined by Professor Lauren Kenworthy, Division Chief, Neuropsychology Director, Center for Autism Spectrum Disorders Pediatric Neuropsychologist, at the Children's National Hospital, based in Washington DC.Professor Kenworthy shares findings from her landmark study, 'Executive Function Challenges Persist into Young Adulthood and Predict Mental Health Outcomes in Autism', published in JCPP — ACAMH's flagship peer-reviewed journal. Drawing on over 300 autistic individuals and more than 900 observations spanning ages 2 to 25, this is one of the most comprehensive longitudinal investigations into executive function trajectories and mental health outcomes in autism to date.The episode unpacks what executive functions are — the brain-based cognitive abilities governing flexibility, working memory, and impulse control — and why they matter so profoundly for the mental health of autistic young people. With approximately 70% of autistic children and 63% of autistic adults experiencing mental health challenges at any given time, Professor Kenworthy explains why understanding the relationship between executive dysfunction and depression and anxiety in autism is not just academically important, but urgent.Among the most striking findings: executive function challenges — particularly cognitive inflexibility — remain clinically elevated from early childhood all the way through young adulthood, persisting even in young people who have had access to clinical support. Anxiety symptoms worsen significantly for autistic girls, with measurable divergence from their male peers emerging around age 12 — a finding with major implications for autism diagnosis, gender differences in autism, and targeted mental health intervention.Professor Kenworthy also shares her work developing Unstuck and On Target, a school-based executive function intervention designed to be delivered by educators — not just clinicians — addressing the urgent need for scalable, real-world, evidence-based autism support in schools. The conversation covers participatory research, the 12-year evidence-to-implementation gap, the limits of existing interventions including ABA, and why autistic voices must be central to the future of autism research and intervention design.Essential listening for clinicians, researchers, educators, and anyone with a stake in autism mental health, early intervention, and neurodevelopmental research.Read the paper 'Executive function challenges persist into young adulthood and predict mental health outcomes in autism' https://doi.org/10.1111/jcpp.70149Lauren Kenworthy, Lauren Baczewski, Alan H.

This episode of the Mind the Kids podcast features Dr. Joanne Park, clinical psychologist and Principal Investigator of the Parenting Resilient Kids (Park) Lab at Mount Royal University, Canada. Hosted by Clara Faria, the conversation explores emerging research on “climate worry” in early adolescence, drawing on Dr. Park's recent publication in Child and Adolescent Mental Health.Dr. Park examines whether concerns about climate change represent a distinct psychological construct or are simply an extension of generalised anxiety. The discussion unpacks the difference between affective climate worry—emotional responses to climate change—and cognitive climate worry, which reflects more developed fears about future impact. Importantly, the findings suggest that climate worry is not only common among younger adolescents but may also have unique associations with wellbeing, independent of general anxiety.The episode also highlights key developmental, social, and gender-related factors shaping how young people experience climate-related distress. Dr. Park discusses why girls and gender-diverse adolescents may report higher levels of climate worry, and considers how clinicians, educators, and parents can respond without over-pathologising what may be a rational reaction to the climate crisis.This conversation is essential listening for clinicians, researchers, and educators interested in child and adolescent mental health, particularly those working with anxiety, emotional development, and the psychological impact of global challenges. It also offers practical insight into how to support young people in managing climate-related concerns through adaptive coping and resilience-building strategies.Read the CAMH journal paper ‘Prevalence, conceptual distinctiveness, and cross-sectional correlates of climate worry in Canadian adolescents' - https://doi.org/10.1111/camh.70076Joanne L.

In this episode of the Mind the Kids, Clara Faria speaks with Professor Nathalie Auger and Professor Howard Steiger about new research exploring how maternal anorexia nervosa may influence children's mental health and neurodevelopment.Using a large population-based cohort, the study examines links between maternal eating disorders and outcomes such as anorexia nervosa, attentional difficulties, and other psychiatric risks in offspring. The discussion highlights the role of genetic vulnerability, environmental exposure, and epigenetic mechanisms, offering a nuanced understanding of how risk is transmitted across generations.The episode also considers important clinical implications, including the benefits of early treatment, the importance of reducing stigma, and how supporting maternal mental health can improve outcomes for future generations.A must-listen for professionals in child and adolescent mental health, psychiatry, psychology, and anyone interested in eating disorders and developmental research.Read the CAMH journal paper ‘Maternal anorexia nervosa and risk of mental and neurodevelopmental morbidity in offspring'Sam Amar, Gabriel Côté-Corriveau, Mimi Israël, Howard Steiger, Nancy Low, Nicholas Chadi, Émilie Brousseau, Nahantara Lafleur, Nathalie AugerFirst published: 02 December 2025 https://doi.org/10.1111/camh.70051Get a free CPD/CME certificate for listening to this podcast by registering for a FREE ACAMH Learn account at https://bit.ly/4fF4BBWVisit https://www.acamh.orgFacebook and LinkedIn search / ACAMHInstagram https://www.instagram.com/assoc.camhBluesky https://bsky.app/profile/acamh.bsky.socialX https://x.com/acamh

Puberty is something everyone goes through in life. But it is an uncomfortable topic to talk about for many. A new podcast is putting puberty front and center of the conversation. Presented by Brains On Universe, the podcast is simply titled “Puberty (The Podcast).” It's designed for kids ages 7-12 and is also a resource for parents helping their kids navigate their changing bodies and brains. The show's host and executive producer, Molly Bloom, joined MPR News host Nina Moini to talk about it.

In this episode of Carpool Conversations, Amy and Sara sit down with Taylor Shannon from ESP (Extra Special People) to talk about what it really means to help kids with disabilities experience belonging. Taylor shares how ESP creates relationship-centered spaces where individuals with disabilities and their families are known, valued, and included, and offers practical encouragement for parents who want to raise compassionate, confident kids who see and celebrate others well. Together, they discuss how to respond when kids ask awkward questions in public, simple ways families can build genuine friendships within the disability community, and what parents should look for when choosing inclusive environments like summer camps. Taylor also speaks directly to parents navigating a new diagnosis or difficult season, reminding them that they are not alone and that their child's value has never changed. Whether your family has firsthand experience with disability or you simply want to help your kids grow in empathy and kindness, this conversation is full of insights, wisdom, and hope.

Welcome to Mind the Kids, the ACAMH podcast where research meets real-world practice in child and adolescent mental health. In this episode, 'Anxiety, does the apple fall far from the tree?', Dr. Jane Gilmour and Professor Umar Toseeb explore whether anxiety runs in families, what the latest research says about clinically anxious parents and children's anxiety disorders, and how genetic, environmental, and family factors may shape risk. Joining them is Dr Sigrid Elfström, lead author of a population-based study published in the Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry. The conversation also looks at why diagnosis is not destiny, why prevention matters, and how to communicate risk without parent blaming.They discuss whether anxiety can be transmitted through family processes, what the findings mean in practice, and how clinicians and parents can think about risk without assuming it is deterministic.This episode covers: Children's anxiety disorders. Clinically anxious parents. Parent-child mental health. Genetic and environmental influences. Family processes and prevention. Evidence-based child mental health research.Read the paper 'A detailed investigation of anxiety disorders in children of clinically anxious parents: a population-based study' - https://doi.org/10.1111/jcpp.70085Sigrid Elfström, Susanne Wicks, Christina Dalman, Johan ÅhlénFirst published: 04 December 2025 Get a free CPD/CME certificate for listening to this podcast by registering for a FREE ACAMH Learn account at https://bit.ly/4fF4BBWVisit https://www.acamh.orgFacebook and LinkedIn search / ACAMHInstagram https://www.instagram.com/assoc.camhBluesky https://bsky.app/profile/acamh.bsky.socialX https://x.com/acamh

This episode is really special to me.You're going to meet two girls who are both showing us what strength looks like… just in very different ways.First, you'll meet Leahla. Right now, she's going through treatment for Hodgkin's lymphoma. And the way she talks about it? The way she carries herself? It stopped me in my tracks.She's not looking for pity. She's not calling herself a “nebach.” Her words: “We're not nebachs. We're heroes.”And once you hear her explain what that means… you won't forget it.Then you'll meet Sari.After her baby sister spent time in the NICU, Sari realized something powerful: She doesn't just want to learn… she wants to help.She's already thinking about becoming a nurse one day, maybe in oncology, maybe in the NICU… and the way she talks about caring for people, really seeing them, is something every kid (and adult!) needs to hear.So this episode is about two kinds of strength: ✨ The strength to go through something hard ✨ And the strength to step up and help others through it

Born in a refugee camp in Angola after his family fled war in DR Congo, young Eduardo's life started with challenges most children could never imagine. But through courage, family strength and a love for the game, his dream began to grow — from the streets of Fougères in France to the world stage of the UEFA Champions League. We explore how Camavinga switched from judo to football, the coaches who spotted his talent, and the moment he burst onto the scene with Stade Rennais at just 16. You'll hear how he became one of France's youngest internationals ever, signed for Real Madrid, and helped the club lift Europe's biggest trophy. Packed with shoutouts, big moments, resilience and life lessons, this episode shows kids and families that where you start does not decide where you finish. Perfect for young football fans aged 6–12, car journeys, bedtime listening and screen-free family time. If your child loves football, dreams big and never gives up — this one's for them. ⚽ Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Travel with Kids Podcast rec!What happens when your kids fly business class before they can spell it? We tackle the uneasy question head-on: are we raising entitled travelers—or can points-powered perks actually teach humility, gratitude, and grit? Drawing from our own path—from rural road trips and solo backpacking to parenting three kids with a points strategy—we share the mindset shifts that turned “is this too much?” into “how do we frame this well?”We start by defining entitlement in practical terms: not nice experiences, but the expectation of them. Then we open the curtain on the hidden work that makes “free” travel possible—earning and redeeming points, offsetting annual fees, stalking award space for five seats, and choosing trade-offs. When kids see the effort, they understand the privilege. From there, we focus on modeling over lecturing. The tone we set—thanking staff, marveling at an economy seat's movie selection, celebrating a sunset from a budget room—shapes how our kids assign value to comfort, people, and place.Money talk plays a starring role. We walk through real numbers—cash rates, point valuations, taxes—and turn it into simple math for older kids: how many hours at $10 an hour equals a hotel night? That perspective check pairs with a conscious rewrite of scarcity scripts. Instead of “don't get used to it,” we teach that with planning and responsibility, they can build the life they want—travel or not. We also highlight the quiet wins travel gives kids: resilience through jet lag, flexibility during delays, adventurous palates, and empathy born from noticing what's different and what's the same.To root those lessons deeper, we add service. Local volunteering like meal packing, and one-day opportunities with reputable groups on trips, turn comfort into contribution without savior narratives. By the end, our stance is clear: perks don't create entitlement—stories do. We choose to tell a story of gratitude, effort, and respect, so luxury becomes a lesson rather than a baseline. If this conversation resonates, follow along, share it with a travel-loving parent, and leave a quick rating and review so more families can find the show.
