Dorktales Storytime (Ages 5-10) is a podcast for kids and families featuring fairytales with social-emotional themes and important, but unfortunately overlooked historical figures. Dorktales’ creators, Jodi Murphy, Molly Murphy, and Jonathan Cormur (a mother-daughter-son team), believe social and emotional learning provides kids with a strong foundation of mental wellness, a message amplified in each delightfully engaging episode. A great episode to start with is…Big Bad’s Big Feelings
