Wonder World Podcast Monday, April 29

Welcome back Wonder World listeners! Pam and Olivia here, and we’re ready to kick off the last week of April and the start of May with some fascinating fun facts and of course, lots of laughter. In this episode we have unique celebrations like Honesty Day, Learn to Ride a Bike Day, and Mother Goose Day. Listen along for contributions from some of our young listeners, a word of the week to help expand your vocabulary, and an enchanting poem to stir your imagination.

We have special birthdays to celebrate this week, including legendary race car driver Dale Earnhardt and the hilarious comedian Jerry Seinfeld, plus our Wonder World Kid's Club members. But that's not all! Tune in for intriguing historical tidbits, including the creation of a famous cartoon character in 1938 and the commencement of construction on the Panama Canal in 1904.

So, grab the whole family, hit play, and let’s wonder together!
