Podcasts for Homeschooling: The Wild West of Homeschool Resources

The podcast world, or Internet-based radio episodes found via subscription services like iTunes, is blowing up. When we started our podcast in 2011, we won “Best New Podcast” in part because we didn’t have a lot of competition. There are over ten times as many podcasts now! Around 10,000 podcasts are launched EVERY MONTH. So… how do you find the ones you need?

By listening to people you trust. Here is our list:

Our Favorite Science Podcasts for Kids:

• Brains On
• The Show about Science
• Tumble

• But Why: A Podcast for Curious Kids Kids’ Podcasts That Promote Literacy:

• Book Club for Kids
• [Book Power for Kids](https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/book-power-for-kids/id1141688159?mt=2 ,)

Kids’ Podcasts for Social Emotional Learning:

Little Stories for Tiny People

Other Educational Podcasts for Kids:

The Past and the Curious (History)

And to tie it all together, you may have heard of a free stories podcast for children called Sparkle Stories. ;) We mix in a bit of each of these areas listed above and craft stories for ages 3-10+ that educate and entertain through stories. Whether you’re looking for history, homeschooling, Halloween, or healing, we’ve got a story for you and your family. You can start with our podcast, and if your kids start asking for more, you can stream our library of over 1,000 original audio stories for kids through our free trial or buy individual series and themed story collections through our Sparkle Store.

Thanks for listening!
