Mixtape Vol. 3: 🎶❤️ More Great Tunes from the Beginning!

In this episode of Little Kids, Big Hearts, Todd continues our musical trip back in time. Last week, we revisited songs about siblings, identity, trying new things, pets, belonging, anger, and imagination. Now we're back with seven more songs inspired by real conversations with kids and some very memorable adventures in the Land of Qook-a-lackas. There's a song about going to Dreamland when you're asleep. A song about finding hope when everything around you feels like it's changing. A song about learning differences and discovering your own super, super power. A song about looking ahead to a new year and letting go of things you don't want to carry with you. A song about boundaries and knowing that you can say no. A song about how one small act of kindness can spread through an entire community. And finally, a song about Buttercup the cat, who gets very, very wet. Together, these two mixtape episodes take us through some of the conversations, feelings, songs, and stories that have shaped Little Kids, Big Hearts from the very beginning. And that's the end of our musical journey through the first three seasons. We're going to take a short break from the podcast, but we'll be back with more great episodes soon. Perfect for kids ages 3-11 and families who want to listen, sing, imagine, and explore together.
