Do you know a child who loves to push everyone’s buttons, who can be annoying or sometimes even exasperating? Then, it’s time to send them into the world of Goop Tales, where the Goop boys and girls will get them motivated to improve their behavior in one of the best educational podcasts on the internet.

Meet Xaspery, a dashing Goop boy who can be very exasperating and sometimes lets his anxiety get the best of him. He even gives away everyone’s hiding places when they play hide-and-seek—oh dear! One day, while doing his best to annoy his friend Haychu, he falls into a waterfall and gets dropped into the Swiss Alps.

Xaspery’s character will connect with any child who has moments when they just love to be annoying. After he realizes he’s in Switzerland, he meets an ibex who tells him that he’ll have to make his way to the sublime Matterhorn in the Swiss Alps in order to meet the white ibex and get back to Goop World. Luckily, he gets help from a fluffy white rabbit named Cedric, as well as a strong, young ibex named Leo

These story podcasts for kids will teach children history and culture and help them reflect on their own behaviors. As kids listen to Xaspery’s story, they will learn why being annoying doesn’t have to come from being anxious and develop a love of relaxing podcasts that encourage self-directed play and keep them from turning into screen zombies. The kids in your life will love Xaspery’s sense of adventure and loyalty to his friends.
