Welcome to Storytime!In this original story by the team at Little Kids, Big Hearts, we learn the origin of the Qook-a-lacka song healer, Quasnick, who we first met in our episode "Moving Time" when Quasnick helped kids create a song to help a Qook-a-lacka family cope with their big feelings around moving. In this story, Quasnick has practiced and practiced for the Great Qooka Sing, but loses the all-important songbook the day of the performance! Quasnick is poised to apologize and call it a night, but a young friend gives an important reminder: "You don't need the sheet music. I've heard you hum by the shoreline and in the store. I've seen you tap your feet in time with the sounds of the forest. Your songs are part of YOU!"Quasnick gets up on stage and creates an original song inspired by the words and feelings of the Qook-a-lackas in the crowd. The song becomes "Power of a Song," which we released earlier this week on our podcast ... AND the moment transformed Quasnick into the Song Healer of the Land of Qook-a-lackas. The Song Healer doesn't “fix” feelings but rather makes space for them, so all Qook-a-lackas and little Qook-a-leekies know that their hearts have a voice.The story is voiced by host Todd Loyd, Creative Producer Christy Pusz Decatur, and the original Song Healer, Benjamin Weiner!Thanks for joining us for Storytime!Visit us online (https://playsparkler.org/power-of-music/) or on our Youtube channel to learn more (https://www.youtube.com/@LittleKidsBigHearts).

Hello Listerooni! It's your friendly neighbourhood Spider Nan here. I'm sorry I can't be here for this LOLcast recording as I'm on holidays - OOPS - I mean doing a podcasting course at a fancy resort - Oops- I mean a VERY fancy resort. Comedy Festival is over here in sMelbourne so The boys are back in the dog-washing trailer/podcast studio and they've made a brand-new episode of The Listies Make You LOLcast!
Everyone — even the "queen of children's music" — makes mistakes on occasion!We are thrilled to share an interview with Laurie Berkner, the bestselling, award-winning children's recording artist, about making music and making mistakes. Laurie's albums have been bestsellers on a chart typically dominated by movie soundtracks and major label compilations. With more than 1 billion total streams, an average of more than 22 million monthly streams, more than 535 million YouTube channel views, and millions of CDs and DVDs sold, Laurie's songs have become beloved classics for children worldwide. Her debut DVD, which went quadruple platinum, was the first-ever indie children's music DVD to enter Billboard's Top Music Video chart at #1. Laurie's 16th album, A Laurie Berkner Halloween, was released in September 2024, and a Laurie Berkner Greatest Hits album will be out in May 2025.A longtime fixture on TV's Noggin and Universal Kids (formerly Sprout) channels, Laurie was the first recording artist to ever appear in a music video interstitial on Noggin and was featured in nearly all the episodes of the channel's Jack's Big Music Show. Laurie can also be heard in two seasons of the ten-chapter Audible Original series she created, Laurie Berkner's Song & Story Kitchen. Laurie has written the music and lyrics for three children's musicals and Simon & Schuster Books for Young Readers has published a series of three picture books with Laurie, each based on one of her songs: We Are the Dinosaurs, Pillowland, and Monster Boogie.In this interview on the Little Kids, Big Hearts podcast, Laurie chats with LKBH host Todd Loyd about making mistakes: The theme of the month!

Aloha Listeroonis, Nan here, sliding into your ears with another chill episode of The Listies Make You SNOWcast. Did I just say SNOWcast? I meant LOLcast! (Oops… Shhhh don't tell Matt and Rich, they still think we're headed somewhere "cool".) In this episode, Rich and Matt daydream about the theme parks they'd like to visit: Sensible Land and Epic Pete's World of Danger and Screaming. You can guess who wants to go where. Also, we take a dive into our Fan Mail/Spam Mail bag, and Rich unveils a piece of poetry cooler than a penguins bum. Oh, and guess what? We've got a brand-new sponsor suggestion from one of you clever-rooni's! Marble Studios. Could this be the start of The "NCU?" Nan's Cinematic Universe. Stay tuned to find out. If you've got jokes, sponsor suggestions, or even just want to say hi, email us at hello@thelisties.com. Who knows, maybe your idea will take us somewhere truly magical (or frozen solid, hehe). That's all for now, snow angels! Stay cheeky, stay chilly, and don't forget your thermals. Also Matt asked me to put these photos in the episode notes... Hope they make you LOL. See you next year! Aloha, Nan P.S. Does anyone know how to get icicles off a mobile dogwash? Asking for a friend.

Surf's up Listerooni! Grab your swimmers, towel and sunscreen cause this pod is headed to the beach. Matt loves the beach but Richard? *ah, not so much* In fact he's written a 16 standza poem all about it! YIKES! This episode sees The Listies jump inside their D.I.Y Time Machine (aka washing basket) and take a trip back to the time of William Sharkspeare. Did i say shark? It must be the beach talking. We've also got Kids Jokes the Theme Song, kids jokes, sponsor suggestions and of course fruits and veggies that look like b*ms. Enjoy. Aloha, Nan
The two parts of the Americana duo Tattletale Saints, Simon Stanley and Vanessa McGowen, join us today to talk about tons of music stuff: their formation and evolution, Simon's foray into kids music, Vanessa's bass playing, their move to Nashville, what makes a good cover, and why music from New Zealand might be especially innovative. Simon also talks about songwriting, and Vanessa gives advice to early musicians about making success out of passion. We also include D.I.N.K., one of The Tattletale Saints songs. You just might be a D.I.N.K.! A lovely episode for music listeners, makers, and lovers of all shapes.
