Since 2019 RTÉjr Radio has been growing its roster of podcasts for kids and families, and with a new radio page, it's never been easier to find all of their shows, radio and podcasts.
They range from short 7 minute podcasts that can fill a short drive or binge on for longer journeys. To in-depth longer pods for older children that really want to get their teeth into a subject.
For kids who love stories
Adventures of a Young Pirate Queen
A reimagining of the Gráinne Mhaol story delving into her first swashbuckling adventure. Known more as the fearsome pirate who sailed the seven seas in the 16th Century, this podcast wonders at what started her on that path.
Spooky FM
This radio station mysteriously appeared in Ireland just in time for Halloween 2020 - Spooky FM! It’s most terrifying show, Scare Me If You Can, is hosted by Uncle Vlad, a vampire from the heart of Transylvania, and Zombetty, surprisingly chipper considering she’s been dead for 100 years. It’s time for the children of Ireland to turn the tables and scare the devilish duo with their own tales of terror! Filled with werewolves, witches, evil fairies and slimy sea monsters, are you brave enough to listen?
