Find Free Podcast Children Stories

By Elena McDowell


Since the explosion of the Internet the number of children's resources from games, activities and books has steadily grown. While a parent and child once lay in cozy chair reading bedtime stories, today the art of story-telling also involves free podcast children stories. Kids are becoming so fascinated and intrigued with podcasts that in some cases they are now taking the place of parents' voices, allowing parents to listen and react with their child, or point at story books, while the audio reads the book.

Podcasts can involve stories of old, or more modern ones. Children can experience story-telling in an entirely new way. Some prefer reading along with the story, others do not. No matter which form is utilized, this type of story-telling is not only entertaining, but also offers educational value. They can be found across the Internet, on websites, and as downloads. They are perfect for downloading to a variety of electronic devices, and adapt easily to most devices for easy listening.

They can also be used with teacher whiteboards in classrooms. Many sites offer free podcasts, while others offer paid sites. Most free books are fiction, and various topics can be chosen. Book readings can be chosen by author, subject matter, or topic.

Some websites include topics related to morals, holidays, and special events. Some provide fun interactive activities for kids that compliment podcasts, such as poetry activities, questions and answers, how to save a friend, online puzzles, and others. Some offer only a daily reading of a well known book, while others offer the entire download.

Some podcasts are specific to the site, and created for their users. The magical world they create involves unique characters children can connect to and identify with. Stories differ from week to week, with users experiencing story telling in a way not available elsewhere.

Stories in text format are available for download at some sites for those using the site for more educational purposes. This also allows children to increase reading and listening skills, or even prepare for classroom work. Some sites encourage this use and have selections broken up into appropriate grade levels.

Podcasts are also used by teachers of English to second language students. Students whose first language may be quite different from English can often listen to podcasts at home, supplementing classroom learning. Most speak very slowly, allowing for repeating words out loud. Some of them also incorporate children's songs at the end, which children love.

Listening, reading, as well as song and dance with the podcast creates a fun way to learn. It also creates an entertaining method of repetition, memory and retaining information. Singing allows for learning words, and more easily learning English. It allows fun ways to learn word recognition, and also helps excite children regarding learning, listening and reading.

Free podcast children stories takes storytelling to a new level. Not only is it fascinating to young learners, but it allows teachers to pay attention to what children are learning as the story is being read. Online story telling also acts as a teacher and parental assistant, and allows for holding up cards, or implementing other activities with the podcast.
