Apple partnered with Common Sense Media to curate a selection of podcasts for kids and there are four collections filled with family-friendly content. As parents look for educational and entertaining ways to engage kids without screens, many are turning to kid-friendly podcasts. Now, finding children's audio content is easy thanks to curated collections that are recommended by kids, Common Sense Media's all-time favorites or take the form of mysteries and dramas, or story-driven shows.
These podcast recommendations can be found under Common Sense Media Picks and they'll be updated on a monthly basis to reflect relevant themes and cultural moments such as back-to-school season or Women's History Month. These curated collections help to make kid-friendly content readily available to families.
