Is there a youngster in your life who is always asking questions? If so, it’s time to send them into the world of Goop Tales, where the Goop boys and girls will help them improve their behavior in one of the best fiction story podcasts around.
Meet Askalotte, an adorable Goop girl who loves to ring her bell and ask silly and unnecessary questions. She often doesn’t even wait for an answer!
Askalotte’s story will have children playing and engaged as she does her best not to wake the dragon, looks for a word that will bring peace, and does her best to overcome her impulse to ask question after question. If she wants to get back to Goop World, she’ll have to quiet her mind and learn to listen instead of asking questions all the time. Will she finally learn how to quiet the questions? Join her on her adventure through China to find out!
By listening to these audio stories for kids during screen-free time with the family, you can help your child work through similar behavioral problems with the help of the relateable Goops. Whether they are always careless of where they step, want to try everything when it’s not their turn like Lemeetri, or can’t seem to make any decisions, the Goops will help kids tackle these habits and behaviors while broadening their horizons through tales of travel.
