Together with American Public Media and the National Science Foundation, Science Museum of Minnesota researchers recently studied how parents and kids interact as they listen to podcasts — specifically "Brains On!" Join us for a free webinar diving into the results of the study, including tips for supporting informal learning in places like cars, developing scientific inquiry skills, and sparking lifelong curiosity.

"Brains On!" is a science podcast for curious kids and adults that explores various scientific topics through fun, engaging stories, interviews with experts, and listener-submitted questions. Co-hosted by Molly Bloom and a rotating cast of bright kids each episode, the show makes science accessible and exciting for young audiences while diving deep enough to keep parents and educators entertained too. Episodes cover everything from how musical instruments work to the science of sleep, volcanoes, animals, and space exploration.
