Hi All -
One of the reasons Kids Corner has been successful over the past 36 years is that we have acknowledged and embraced the ever-changing technology that our core demographic (kids!) use daily.
From call-waiting (the bane of our existence those first few years as a call-in radio program!) to car phones, the birth of the internet and cell phones and now smart phones and social media. Each of these advancements created challenges in producing Kids Corner, but we always found a way to tweak what we do and embrace the environment.
Over the past few years we noticed a drop in interactivity during our program. Initially we chalked it up to the upheaval of the pandemic but then we realized that our audience is no longer appointment driven. They don't want to wait until 7PM for their hour on the radio. They want what they want, when they want it.
So we began developing Kids Corner 2.0
While keeping the radio show that has entertained generations of listeners, we have designed a brand-new website that will be heavy on video/audio features and exclusive digital content and we decided if the kids no longer were able to carve out time at 7PM to come to us, we would come to them ... whenever they craved a bit of Kids Corner magic and music!
With that, we built - and have now launched - KIDS CORNER 24/7
A commercial free music channel, curated and hosted by Kathy O'Connell, KIDS CORNER 24/7 is available ANYTIME, ANYWHERE around the world!
Currently, one can fire up KIDS CORNER 24/7 via our website KidsCorner.org or downloading the free WXPN app and just toggle the stream icon ((*)) to listen. Soon KIDS CONER 24/7 will be available to stream using Alexa/Google and more!
