Do you know a youngster who often says “I don’t want to” when they don’t feel like doing something? Then enter the world of Goop Tales to listen to one of the best creative, screen-free, and educational story podcasts around.

Meet Dowanto, a playful Goop boy who loves to say “I don’t want to.” Whether he’s tired of a game, doesn’t want to eat his food, or is too lazy to wake up in the morning, “I don’t want to” is his go-to phrase. One day, he makes the mistake of saying it to the wind when it tries to wake him up to go home, and the wind decides it’s time for him to learn a lesson.

Dowanto will connect with any child who resists doing what they’re told. After the wind picks him up and places him on a cloud high above the ground, he meets a helpful cloud who tells him he must find the never-ending staircase, but how can he get there? He jumps from cloud to cloud, eventually landing on a not-so-friendly hail cloud who wants to keep him in the sky forever.

Maria Calanchini, Goop Tales’ creator, will hold your child’s attention with her clear intonation, vibrant Goop voices, and cute sound effects. Meet all of the unique individuals that Maria has developed through each short story podcast as the Goops encourage children to reflect on important lessons and learn from their environment.
