Squiz Kids

Squiz Kids is a news podcast, just for kids! 10 minutes of age-appropriate news, delivered with positivity and humour. Make it part of your daily routine by playing it over breakfast, during the drive to school or - for all the Squiz teachers out there - in the classroom.

There's also kids v adults quizzes, a book club, kids-only Q&As (with people like the Prime Minister!), deep dives into topics kids love (from Barbie to Halloween, toys, sport, inventions, crazy science stuff, and so much more).


Want a birthday shoutout? Email us at squizkids@thesquiz.com.au, or visit the Squiz Kids website.


PS. We do news for big people (aka adults) over on The Squiz Today - a free weekday email and podcast. Search for Squiz Today in your podcasting app, or check out The Squiz Today newsletter here.
