#Storied is one of my favorites.
It’s not all about #folktales & #mythology but the episodes that are are excellent - Dr. Zarka knows her stuff. I love that the episodes are not long, have great production, and are fun to watch with the kids (where the ‘not long’ part is very helpful).
The episodes that aren’t about #stories are usually about words & #language - and also fascinating & fun for kids. They have animations with Dr. Brozovsky’s presentation.
