Welcome to "Kids These Days" – a podcast about why kids do what they do, geared towards the adult caregivers in their lives! Listen each Wednesday as co-hosts, Sarah Holmes and Ruddy Benavides cover a variety of topics ranging from process vs. product art to why culture is more than just a color – and everything in between, in bite-sized episodes. Stay tuned later in the season for episodes that bring you “voices from the field” – providers, parents, directors, etc. that are out there doing what you do every day!Subscribe on your favorite platform (find us on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, and Google Podcasts) to stay updated on the latest episodes. We would love to hear from you!
