Happy New Year! Today we’re sharing our participation in the Big Emotions: Kids Listen Mashups About Feelings. This episode focuses on Belonging and Independence, two emotions that may seem opposite but often work together as children explore who they are and where they fit. You’ll be guided through stories about friendship, self-discovery, and finding one’s place while finding one’s voice by Abbe Opher and Kelly MacBride from Koala Kids. You’ll also hear familiar voices from Dorktales Storytime alongside our friends from Culture Kids and Stoopkid Stories.

This theme closely reflects the heart of Dorktales Storytime, which centers on helping young listeners feel valued, supported, and encouraged as they grow into their unique selves.
