The Fourth Week of Halloween: for Kids
The Fourth Week show notes
Our final episode is packed to overflowing with spooky goodness. Like:
The secret history of trick-or-treating (hint: it goes back millenia).
A special visit from talented composer, musician, and educator John Chmaj, who explains just what makes spooky music so, well, spooky. (We urge you to check out more of John’s music here.)
And possibly our most adorable recommendation ever.
All this, and more, ready to load into your auditory canals!
FYI, this is the last episode in this series. If there are more topics you’d like us to cover, drop us a line at fourweeks @ gowstuff.com.
