Celebrate The Children's Hour's fifth birthday in a show full of memorable moments from our last five years, and mixed with some of our favorite tunes.

This time on The Children’s Hour we rock on with Esther Crow. She’s an award winning Kindie rockstar, whose music is full of inspirational lyrics and jamming guitar licks. We also hear from Kids Crew member Isaac about his Gila Wilderness Adventure. Esther Crow is our guest deejay.

This week we explore a creature that used to live throughout the mountain west United States, the elusive black footed ferret. Once declared extinct, the highly endangered specialist predator may make a comeback in the North American prairie thanks in part to our guest, Paul Marinari, Senior Curator at the Smithsonian Conservation Biology Institute at the National Zoo.

This time on The Children's Hour, we learn about parasites. Parasitologists Dr. Matt Bolek and Dr. Sarah Bush join our Kids Crew for a lively discussion.
