The Brain Playground
Social-emotional learning that feels like recess!
The Brain Playground is a co-listening podcast for kids ages 4–8 and their grown-ups to enjoy together. Sensory-friendly and interactive, each episode sparks emotional growth through playful games, creative movement, imaginative adventures, and meaningful reflection.
Guided by your brain bud, Izby, the show follows a consistent rhythm that meets kids where they are and makes space for connection. It's a joyful reminder that every brain is awesome, exactly how it is, and every time we play, it grows a little more.

S1:E8 - Feelings Forecast!
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this playful episode, kids discover how feelings shift—just like the weather—and how their Brainbow Toolkit prepares them with tools for focus, balance, and calm.
Guided by your brain bud, Izby, kids will:
- Solve sky riddles to collect special tools like a Sunbeam Spark, Thunder Beat, and Cloud Puff
- Practice calming breaths and choose a Feelings Badge—a color that shows how they feel inside
- Swing into the Weathering Realm, where fog, storms, and rainbows show them how to work through emotional ups and downs
- Share and imagine a rainbow of feelings—because sorting feelings into colors helps the brain notice, name, and manage them
