Tents: Everyone Needs Shelter (Talking to Kids about Refugees)

If two giraffes went camping, what would they bring? While Kevin & Louise try to figure out what they need to bring on their camping trip, Miry from Miry’s List helps Andrew & Polly meditate on the sounds and smells of home, and offers ideas about how we can help families seeking refuge in our communities feel at home. Thanks to our friends Sabo, Reuben, Tess, Fritz, Kalin & Millie who asked to be on the show by having a grownup visit earsnacks.org.
