Whale hello there! What's your favorite quarium?
Andrew & Polly are getting ready for a big July -- the 10th year of Ear Snacks! Wolftrap on July 11th! -- but we can't leave June without celebrating Aquarium Appreciation Month! Nate from The Show About Science talks about Luna the Otter at the Shed Aquarium in Chicago, Rebecca Johnson from the California Academy of Science talks about nudibranch camouflage (crypsis!) and evolution, and our friend Jenn talks about her love of seahorses!
(We also share the aquatic anthem we wrote with Mista Cookie Jar, AQUARIUM!)

Fiddle Around!
Polly goes to Fiddle Camp, violinist Katie Buckbee and her son Archer expound on their love of bluegrass, and our pal Eddie Berman introduce us to his 5-string banjo. A bit of ear training on Ear Snacks!
(And we use "fiddling" as a model for ways of learning by doing.)
We're getting ready for the 10th year of Ear Snacks, and we can't make this show without you! Parents around the world have shared their children's voices & ideas with us, and we love building inspirational, educational, fun shows centered around them.

What's a Mustache?
We mustache you a question -- What exactly IS a mustache? And WHO can have one?
Celebrate Pride month with Andrew & Polly by wondering about all the different types of hairs that can grow on a face! Filmamker Sally Rubin joins us to talk about her family's mustaches and her animated short film "Mama Has a Mustache" a conversation starter for families and educators thinking about gender (that we made the music for!)
