What’s It About?
TUMBLE EN ESPAÑOL is a Spanish-language podcast that brings science to kids in a realistic and meaningful way. Friendly and accessible hosts Nuria and Álvaro guide listeners through conversational lessons about topics of interest in the scientific world. Relatable themes are delivered with a clarity and humor that will appeal to young listeners and their families alike. Details that could be complicated are made more understandable with connections and examples that kids can identify with. For example, people poop so that they don't explode. There's a constant theme of supporting curiosity in kids who have an interest in STEM or simply in how things work in the world around them.
Is It Any Good?
This delightful podcast has something for everyone. Tumble en Español is sure to be a crowd-pleaser with its STEM themes that are both relevant and interesting. It's both educational and entertaining. Curious kids and parents alike will enjoy Nuria and Álvaro's conversational lessons and easygoing communication style and may find themselves laughing out loud on occasion. The clear explanations as well as obvious enthusiasm of their expert guests will have kids and even adults wanting more. The only downside is that there are currently only seven episodes and no mention of when the show will continue production.

Did we miss something on diversity?
Research shows a connection between kids' healthy self-esteem and positive portrayals in media. That's why we've added a new "Diverse Representations" section to our reviews that will be rolling out on an ongoing basis. You can help us help kids by suggesting a diversity update.
