Blog Pod #2 - "Have We Met?" - from The Little Blog by LCEP
<p><strong> </strong>🎙️ Welcome to the second episode of the Little Audio Library's "Blog Pod" series! For this one, we're jumping to the April 2024 post from The Little Blog. The post, entitled <em>Have We Met?</em>, gives you a peek behind the curtain and chance to hear all about the genesis and "making of" Little Crab Educational Press.</p> <p><br>But first, what's a "Blog Pod"? It's the part of our Little Audio Library where our written blog posts are transformed into engaging audio content. </p> <p><br>Although we didn't initially set out to include podcasting in our repertoire, we realized that as a language study resources company, our audio offerings should expand beyond the free audio accompaniments we provide with our books. This decision not only aligns with our core value of inclusivity (and, as such, working to build content that is more accessible), but it also resonates with our busy lifestyles as working moms. After all, podcasts lend themselves so well to task-stacking!</p> <p><br>Looking forward to creating a Part Two to this one someday. This post is going to feel like a time capsule! :-D</p> <p><br>Things in the audio we mention would be available in the show notes:</p> <p><br>1) Get your <a href="https://littlecrabpress.myflodesk.com/tqubrm72ij" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Bilingual Boats printable freebie version</a> <---here.</p> <p><br>2) Here is your access to the <a href="https://littlecrabpress.myflodesk.com/ku9a360zua" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Little Freebie Library</a>.</p> <p><br></p> <p>3) <a href="https://schoolhouseteachingsupplies.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">School House Teaching Supplies</a>, who carries LCEP titles on their shelves, is the Educational Store for Everyone, in Victoria BC, Canada.</p>
