Shownotes
Hey there, Wonder World listeners! Olivia and Pam here, and do you know what today is? It’s June 10th, and we’re diving into the second week of June! Buckle up, because this week is jam-packed with fascinating holidays such as, Red Rose Day, Sewing Machine Day, International Surfing Day, and let’s not forget, Father's Day. We're brainstorming the best gifts for Dad, but we have to keep it hush-hush in case he tunes in!
Wander through history as we learn about the opening of the first public zoo in Paris and why the U.S. Postal Service stopped mailing children (yes, you read that right). Plus, we have a shoutout to some special Wonder World Kids Club members who are celebrating their birthdays this week! Get ready for some giggles with hilarious strawberry jokes and take a guess at this week's trivia: What was softball originally known as? Spoiler alert: it's a lot cooler than you think.
Gather the whole family and hit play. It's time to let Wonder World whisk you away into another fun-filled episode. See you there!
