Big Emotions: Kids Listen Mashups

Big Emotions: Kids Listen Mashups is a brand-new collaborative series created by over 40 Kids Listen podcast teams, bringing together some of the most beloved and award-winning children’s shows in the community. Designed as an accessible Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) resource, the series helps young listeners explore complex feelings through immersive sound, storytelling, and guided reflection.

Each episode focuses on paired emotions like Fear & Bravery, Jealousy & Openness, Anger & Forgiveness, and more. With original music that mirrors each emotional theme, plus hands-on activities and discussion questions, the series offers educators and families a ready-to-use tool for building self-awareness, empathy, relationship skills, and decision-making. Produced by Tal Kelly, this project reflects the power of collaboration across the Kids Listen creator community.
