Description

Morning Kids is a daily, five-minute educational resource that helps kids dip a toe into the world of news in an age-appropriate way. Our goal is to contextualise life for our little ones, from gently explaining something they may have heard in the news, to what feelings are and why they may be experiencing them. We’ll be expanding their worlds and exploring foreign lands together, and introducing them to animals and their body. Created in partnership with Australian primary school teachers, Morning Kids is designed to give five- to seven-year-olds a safe listening space each weekday, whether they’re listening in the car on the way to school or around the breakfast table.
