410. Gavin asks: What if Fred could turn anything into sticks?

Season 11 · Episode 410

Monday, October 5, 2026 • Duration 17:22

When Fred wakes up in a stick-free meadow, he’ll do anything in his power to find something to chew. Lessons include: Taking responsibility for our mistakes; listening to other people’s body boundaries (even when you’re a make believe dog).

Grownups, you can find it via this link or by searching on YouTube Kids for What If World. Note: While chewing on a big sturdy stick can be fun for a dog, don’t let them consume the pieces. And don’t let them chew on Oak, which is not considered pet-safe. Subscribe at whatifworld.fun, Support the show, and get our Yoto Cards! Want more kids podcasts for the whole family?
