It seems like yesterday I had little ones to sing and dance with. Over the years, we have listened to a variety of kid's music. Smart Kidz Radio from Smart Kidz Media offers parents and young children a selection of fun educational songs and stories.
Smart Kidz Radio is a free online radio station for young children. It's a live stream. The programming is geared for children ages, 2 to 10. The radio station offers a variety of programming to appeal to all your little ones. The original songs and stories from Smart Kidz Radio help teach children valuable lessons and skills. It focuses on teaching wonderful character traits and proper morals and values. For example, one song we heard was all about brushing your teeth and the importance of taking care of your teeth.
In addition to the fun, educational songs offered on the radio station, children can find classic children's stories to listen to. Children and parents can choose from classics like Alice in Wonderland, Cinderella, Jack and the Beanstalk, Little Red Riding Hood, Rip Van Winkle, Robin Hood, Sleeping Beauty, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, Treasure Island, and The Three Musketeers! This is just a few of the amazing stories offered for your children to listen to! I loved reading these classic stories to my kids when they were little. Now, parents have the option to listen to this wonderful stories when they are the go. Smart Kidz Radio is available for listening on desk top computers, laptops, tablets, and phones.
I did have Therese sit down and listen to the radio with me. She found some of the lyrics a little hard to understand. She could make a few words here and there. She felt that it might be hard for little ones to catch on to the lyrics. We both felt the songs are definitely geared for the younger child. The few songs we heard would be of more interest to the preschool/kindergarten age range. She did honestly admit that she wouldn't have listened to the music when she was 9 or 10. I would have to say I agree with her. The stories, on the other hand, would probably be fine for slightly older children. I would recommend Smart Kidz Radio for families with children that are 8 or under. The only real complaint I would probably had as a parent when my kids were younger is not having the ability to pick what songs you want to listen too. We all know how kids get fixated on a particular song and want to hear it over and over. This is where the new On-Demand programming would come in handy!
Smart Kidz Radio will be offering an On-Demand program for purchase. The On-Demand programming allows the subscribers to listen to hundreds of songs and stories. Children will be able to listen to whatever song or story they want when they want. No limits! They currently offer two different subscription plans. I didn't have access to the On-Demand programming for this review, so I cannot comment on what the program is actually like. They do offer a free trial, so if you're interested you can just sign up for that to see if the program is right for your children.
Stop by and read what the other crew members had to say about Smart Kidz Radio!
Till Next Time,
