  • BGB Club: The C Song
    Jun 24 2024

    After last week's seafaring cat and crab tale, we just had to dive right in and explore some purrfectly fantastic facts about cats! We also share "The C Song", some funny (and punny) jokes, and a seaside Silly Story.

    We are on a midseason summer break after next week. We'll return on Monday, August 5th with a brand new summertime story as we head into the second half of season two!


    Next week, we'll share a special re-recorded and extended version of one of our most-loved summer stories: "The Lemon Yellow Kite". This version won't have any intro or after show chat - just straight to the relaxing story and music (perfect for rest after a busy summer day)!
