Wonder World Podcast Monday, April 1

Published on: 1st April, 2024

Hey there, Wonder World listeners! It's Pam and Olivia here and do you know what today is? It’s April Fools’ Day and the first day of April! Do you have your fun and silly pranks ready? 

Come along with us as we bring you fun facts and festivities for the first week of April. Did you know that April is Adopt a Ferret Month and Adopt a Greyhound Month? We can't help but wonder what would happen if you brought both home at once! April is also full of interesting celebrations like Jazz Appreciation Month and Filipino Food Month. It's also a time to keep America beautiful. 

Get ready for some giggle-worthy jokes from young listeners, some special birthday shout-outs, and wrap up with a lovely poem from William Wordsworth. Grab the whole family and hit play. It's time to let Wonder World sweep you away into another fun-filled episode.
