Storytelling With Ngozi
Children love stories. Very young children are connected to the world around them when we read to them. Here at storytelling with Ngozi, we write simple short stories that stir their imaginations, teach them helpful life lessons, increase their knowledge and help young children develop and strengthen their social, emotional, and behavioural skills. This podcast is designed for children ages 3-8years old. Please join us every Monday for a new episode of storytelling with Ngozi.
