The Best Kids’ Podcast There Is
I cannot say enough good things about the Kids Bible Stories Podcast.
The creators of Kids Bible Stories Podcast have taken key stories from the Bible and made them accessible to children. And they’ve done a lot of them, too. There are 295 episodes as of this writing. The stated mission of the podcast is for our children to hear the Word. They quote Romans 10:17, “Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God” in the description of the podcast. I would have to emphatically suggest that they have succeeded in this mission.
Since we live about 20 minutes from our town, these are perfect to listen to on the way to and from basically everywhere we go. The episodes average about 12 minutes long. That gives us just enough time to complete an episode and then discuss it before we get to where we are going. Most episodes are part of a larger series of maybe 3-5 episodes (except the advent series) but there are a lot of stand-alone episodes as well.
What’s in an Episode
They have a litany of stories about Jesus that involve this family of mice and the children all seem to connect with these mice. They’ll be so involved by the end of a series involving the mice that they’re in the car cheering for them! I love it! They love it! I love that they love it!
The podcast will ask questions and give pause for the kids to answer. It is always interesting and insightful to hear what answers the kids give. Sometimes they work things out and put them into words in a way that I never had before. Sometimes I discover holes in our Bible study time that I can then adjust and cover.
All in all, this is my favorite podcast for the littles.
What about you? Is this your favorite kids’ podcast too? What’s your favorite episode? What other children’s podcasts do you recommend? Bonus points if it’s a Bible study type podcast like this one is!
