Wonder World Podcast Monday, May 6

Published on: 6th May, 2024

Welcome back, Wonder World listeners! It's Pam and Olivia here to take you on an exciting journey through the first full week of May. Today, we're celebrating Nurses' Day, paying tribute to the amazing work of nurses all around the world. And did you know that May 7th is not only National Teachers' Day but also Poem on Your Pillow Day?

Join us as we delve into more interesting holidays this week, including Jamestown Day, No Socks Day, Clean Your Room Day, and even a day without shoes. We'll ponder the peculiar combination of No Socks Day and No Shoes Day being back to back. It's a real head-scratcher!

Get ready for some giggle-worthy jokes from young listeners, some special birthday shout-outs to our Wonder World Kids Club members, and we’ll wrap up with a lovely poetic verse dedicated to all the wonderful mothers out there. Mother's Day is just around the corner, after all!

Grab the whole family and hit play. It's time to let Wonder World sweep you away into another fun-filled episode.
