Author: Karyn Collett January 11, 2022 Duration: 10:18

On the Countries for Kids Podcast from Case of Adventure, you get to hear many Scotland fun facts and funnies from our book, Scotland Adventure.

Saundra, a bonnie wee lass from Scotland is your tour guide!

“Welcome to my country of Scotland. My name is SAUNDRA and I am Scottish. My Mum and Dad are Scottish as well. Dad plays the bagpipes in a pipe band and they own a smal shop that sells tartan kilts, berets, sashes and covers for bagpipe bags. Mum creates all our merchandise on her sewing machine as she’s a very talented seam-stress.

I love Highland dancing and have danced in many local competitions, wearing my kilt while I dance. The tartan on my kilt has a history that goes back many generations in our family. I love listening to my grandmother tell stories about life back then – battles between clans on the rugged moors, brave men and women – and how we won our freedom as a nation. Have you heard of heroes like Robert the Bruce and William Wallace?
