Pinna LLC announced its new audio on-demand, screen-free entertainment service developed exclusively for kids, consisting of podcasts, audiobooks, and music. The new Pinna app makes it easy and safe for kids to discover and enjoy a growing catalog of top-quality entertainment with search and discover functionality that allows users to find audio content by recommended age, format, and theme or type. Launching with a catalog of over a thousand audio show and podcast episodes, audiobooks and songs, Pinna also partners with respected children’s brands including Scholastic, Highlights, and American Public Media.
With a focus on activating kids’ imaginations, the Pinna original podcast, ExtraBLURT, invites kids to play along with immersive trivia games while Grimm, Grimmer, Grimmest, ask real kids to guess how a story could unfold. Pinna already boasts several award-winning titles including the Peabody Award-winning podcast.
“Parents are increasingly looking for options to balance the amount of screen time and other entertainment activities their children access daily. The rising popularity of podcasts among all ages proves there is an appetite for audio-led, imagination-activating, immersive storytelling. Pinna’s audio network of podcasts, stories and songs encourages active listening, conversation, social interaction and imaginative play,” said Maggie McGuire, CEO of Pinna. “In this one app, parents can trust they’ll find quality, age-appropriate entertainment in a variety of audio formats and story lengths spanning all of their favorite themes while covering multiple age levels — all free from ads.”
Pinna understands the different developmental and entertainment needs of every child from age three through eight. Pinna experts in child development, education, and entertainment review podcasts and music to ensure they are age-appropriate and high-quality. Pinna ensures that its podcasts are of the highest quality and will have strong appeal to children in part because each original production is kid-tested and goes through a pilot phase.
