A father/daughter project that's gotten a little out of hand. We love helping younger listeners find amazing children's podcasts.
At first I made this website for my kids - mostly to resolve the frustration my daughter experienced with mainstream podcast apps and the lack of easily discoverable age appropriate content - now I write the code and they act as curators, with nothing added without their say so.

These are the latest episodes added to soundcarrot, but be careful, many of these are serialised shows so jumping in at episode 19, for example, could confuse matters.
We'd recommend starting with the first episode of your show of choice, and if you like it, listening from there.
