CBC podcast speaks to a local musician and an author about creating for children
It’s not hard to name the things you loved as a kid. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Baby Beluga or Fred Penner. We bonded over these shows, songs and artists, and we continue to share our favourites with the children in our lives. But what does it mean to make content for kids today?
21:57Why is Edmonton a great place to make content for kids?
Edmonton has a long history of creating high-quality art, music, television and literature for kids. But what does it actually take to make content that resonates with fans of all ages? And what makes Edmontonians so good at it? Host Clare Bonnyman sits down with two experts in the matter — Juno-nominated musician Beppie and playwright and author Marty Chan — to talk about the magic of entertaining children and the power of nostalgia.
This week on This Is Edmonton, host Clare Bonnyman looks into Edmonton’s long history of making quality books, music and TV for kids. She speaks with Beppie, a local children’s musician, and Marty Chan, a local author and playwright, about creating music and stories that resonate with fans of all ages — and about their own nostalgia for kid’s entertainment.
