Wild and Kind Kids Podcast
Wild and Kind Kids is a podcast for families who love animals: the furry, feathery, scaly, and wiggly ones! Each episode invites kids (and their grown-ups) to get curious about how creatures big and small live, play, and help our planet. Hosted by a mom and her two curious kids, it’s part storytelling, part sound adventure, and all about growing a wilder, kinder world — one animal at a time.

The Rose Hair Tarantula
In the deserts of Chile, a shy, pink-haired tarantula feels an itch she just can’t ignore. Meet Rosie the Rose Hair Tarantula!
In this episode, Mom, Lincoln, and Eliza dig into the world of these gentle, fuzzy arachnids to discover how they sense the world with their hairs, hunt without webs, and bravely face one of nature’s coolest makeovers: molting!
When Rosie tries everything to avoid shedding her exoskeleton, her desert friends help her see that change isn’t so scary after all.
Learn, laugh, and wiggle along as we find out why tarantulas are calm, kind, and part of nature’s Glow Up Gang.
