Join host Jed Doherty for an inspiring episode that brings together the best of family adventure and uplifting children's literature! This week, discover "Belle's RV Adventures" with author Kenny Phillips, whose real-life journeys with his wife and their lovable dog Belle have taken them over 180,000 miles across the United States, Canada, and Mexico. Kenny shares insights on the RV lifestyle, the joys of travel, and how his picture book encourages families to explore, learn, and bond together—whether it's a cross-country trip or backyard camping with a storybook in hand.

Next, meet Francine Juhlin, author of "Let Your Sparkle Shine" from the Camp Confidence series. Francine draws from her own remarkable experiences as a military aircraft electrician and her personal journey of self-acceptance to craft stories that help children build confidence and embrace what makes them unique. Learn about her Confidence Club for Kids, her innovative STEM programming, and her heartfelt message: every child can shine just as they are.

Packed with real-life tales, writing advice, and the importance of fostering resilience in kids, this episode is perfect for parents, educators, and young readers who value adventure, creativity, and confidence. Don't miss practical tips on RV technology, heartfelt encouragement, and expert storytelling—plus ways to connect with both authors for more family travel inspiration and confidence-boosting resources!

 


There’s a special kind of magic that happens when families share stories, try a new recipe, or simply talk about a movie they just watched together. The Reading With Your Kids Podcast, from Jedlie Circus Productions, Inc, explores that magic in every episode. While the title highlights reading, the conversations here go far beyond the pages of a book. This podcast is really about connection-the kind built through everyday moments, whether you’re cooking, creating, or discovering a new song together. Each episode brings you authentic conversations with authors, educators, and families who share practical ideas and personal stories. You’ll hear about great children’s books, sure, but also about how shared experiences with TV, movies, and music can spark meaningful family discussions. The underlying goal is always to strengthen those essential bonds. Tuning in feels like getting thoughtful, friendly advice on turning daily routines into opportunities for laughter and learning. It’s a supportive space for any parent or caregiver looking to enrich their family life, one shared story or silly kitchen experiment at a time. The tone is warm, inclusive, and focused on the simple, powerful truth that time spent together is the foundation of a strong relationship.
