QUICK LINKS
This is an episodic podcast, so you can listen to it in any order, but episode one is a great place to start.
Listen to episode one hereToday we talk about mycelium. To me, this is such an interesting topic, so I've included some links below if you want to learn more!
We also do a Loving Kindness practice today. This is when we think of four people (ourselves, someone we love, someone we find difficult, a neutral person) while we say:
May you be happy May you be healthy May you be safe May you live with ease
This is a beautiful practice that helps encourage kindness.
And speaking of kindness, if you'd like to tell us about a time when someone did something kind for you, please send a voice recording to peaceout@bedtime.fm with "Kindness Story (child's name)" as the subject. We will listen and respond to each one and choose a few to include on future Peace Out episodes!
Today's Themes
Scientific (curriculum connections): mushrooms, mycelium, root systems Social-emotional connections: interconnectedness
