The Summer Listening Challenge invites children to listen to eight different podcasts, enhancing their imaginations while remaining screen-free. Kids can track their progress and earn a certificate of achievement, with exclusive congratulatory videos as a reward for completing all episodes. Not only does the challenge entertain, but it also boosts listening comprehension, vocabulary, and fosters social-emotional growth through imaginative storytelling. With a focus on curiosity and learning, the initiative aims to keep children's minds engaged throughout summer.
"Summer shouldn't mean pressing pause on imagination and growth. With the Summer Listening Challenge, we're inviting kids to lean into their curiosity, and keep their minds sharp all season long - no screens required." - Jody Murphy, Summer Listening Coordinator and Co-creator of Dorktales Storytime.
As they listen, they can track their progress using a fun, downloadable tracker designed just for the challenge. Everyone who participates will receive a certificate of achievement.
The Summer Listening Challenge supports the proven benefits of kids' podcast listening, such as boosting listening comprehension, vocabulary and curiosity.
It fosters social-emotional learning by encouraging empathy, confidence, and emotional growth, providing screen-free entertainment that's perfect for road trips, quiet time, or bedtime routines.
