Not So Usual Celebrations

August 20th is National Radio Day.  In this day of IPods and CD changers, it may be challenging for you to understand how the radio could be so important, but for those who precede these inventions, the radio was as important as soda.  Listening to the radio is what we did.  Today, on occasion, I will listen to the radio in the car instead of a book on tape or my favorite musical CD, and I think, I should do this more often.  So today, no CDs, no IPod, just the radio and my favorite talk shows or music.

Activities for Kids

Have kids work in teams to create the perfect 10-minute radio show.  Have them include a Public Service Announcement, a contest, and advertisement or two, a favorite song, and some classic radio personnel banter.  After the teams have created this perfect 10-minute show, have them share it with one another.  Be sure that the kids name the station up front.
