What's Poppin' Penny?
Welcome Trusted Adults & Brownstone Buddies to What's Poppin' Penny? : A Whimsical Podcast for Preschoolers and Families!
Join us as we embark on enchanting journeys with Penny Wright, a curious preschooler with brown skin and curly hair who lives in a cozy multi-generational household filled with love, laughter, and learning.
Penny's life takes a magical turn when she finds a teddy bear in a box of her grandfather's belongings during a game of hide-and-seek with her grandmother, Spicy.
Thanks to a familial poem her grandfather taught her, Penny learns that when your past is just your beginning, your ancestors' gifts can always find you!
