Description
The KoKo Podcast is an interactive podcast designed to activate the imagination through storytelling and building challenges. Listeners become makers using recycled materials and objects found around the home to design cool inventions and kinetic sculptures! In each episode, our teaching artists tell a story to set the scene for creative thinking. Then, listeners participate in a designated building time where they can explore their ideas inspired by the story they’ve just heard. Kids are invited to log onto the KoKo NYC website where they can post pictures of their creations, write stories in response to the podcast and interact with other kids!
