We know playing “Bad Guys” is an integral part of early childhood development — but, as some older kids who are more exposed to the media know, real people can do bad things, too. Last year, But Why: A Podcast for Curious Kids released “How Do You Talk to Kids About Violence in the News?” We asked Jane Lindholm about creating this episode and about her own experience as a parent of two young children.

Happy Chinese New Year! It’s the Year of the Dog and Andrew’s thinking about the word “metamorphosis” – what a perfect time to sing some dog songs and take a closer look at caterpillars with our friends at Valle de Ninos in San Francisco!
It’s a song valentine from Andrew & Polly! Polly plays a funny trick on Andrew in this special secret bonus episode and she shares their brand new song – a cover of Pete Townshend’s “Let My Love Open the Door.” We hope you like the new tune – if you do, we hope you’ll share it with a pal! You can get it on iTunes, Spotify, Amazon Music, YouTube & Google Play.
