My kids love this!

My kids have really enjoyed this app! They loved getting to create their own Pod Person and finding podcasts that match their interests. My daughter especially loved This Podcast Has Fleas and thought it was hilarious! I love that the podcasts are handpicked for kids, so they can explore and find things they actually enjoy listening to. Such a fun alternative to screen time, and something both of my kids can enjoy!

Great app for young listeners!

My son has been obsessed with podcasts since about 4 years old, but playing them on Spotify meant there was a good chance he was going to end up listening to Snoop Dogg after an episode of Snoop and Sniffy. This app is an absolute godsend. Podcasts selections that are trustworthy, a fun but not addictive interface for my kid, and the peace of mind about what plays next.
