At Learn From Play, we have commenced a NEW and EXCITING series of 5-minute audio stories called Urban Explorers. These stories, written and recorded by Paddy McCann, celebrate native animals living in the urban environment. The short duration and fun presentation style mean these stories will make great lesson primers for primary school-aged children and fabulous 'nap time' stories for preschool-aged children. These stories also provide parents with uniquely Australian content to delight and educate siblings of different ages e.g. readers and listeners alike.

Three Ways To Enjoy These Stories
"Urban Explorers" provides three ways to enjoy the content.
For early learners, the rich narration transports the listener to a wonderful space within their imagination.
Those children beginning to read can read along with the narration and grow more familiar with a rich vocabulary.
Finally, sound-off mode gives independent readers a convenient format that allows them to read great Australian content solo and get their imagination working while they read the text (note, to slow down or speed up text, adjust the playback speed of the video).

No matter which way you choose to experience 'Urban Explorers, ' young readers will enjoy a captivating journey through the bustling urban environments of Australia and discover the secret movements of the diverse animals that share our spaces and places.
