A playful podcast for kids ages 4–8 and their grown-ups, designed to spark connection, expression, and growth through sensory-friendly, interactive fun.
This first-of-its-kind show invites all kinds of brilliant brains—neurodivergent and neurotypical—into a world of curiosity, co-listening, and imagination.
At the heart of it all is your brain bud, Izby—the playful host who guides listeners through each episode. With clever challenges, calming moments, creative expression, and heartfelt conversations, Izby helps kids build confidence and emotional resilience along the way.
Rooted in joy and accessibility, The Brain Playground is a reminder that every brain is awesome, exactly how it is, and every time we play, it grows a little more.
