Hat Business: Fun Stories for Kids

The Big Swim Race

Ruby is in the pool. Heart racing. Goggles slightly crooked. Stomach doing Olympic-level flips. Across the lane is Macie a swimmer who moves like a dolphin… if that dolphin had a rocket strapped to its back and absolutely no interest in slowing down. Joining Ruby and Hat for this special adventure are Olympic gold medalist Libby Trickett and Sportish co-host Georgie Trickett, who know a thing or two about nerves, courage and what it takes to keep going when things get tough. But this story isn’t about winning. It’s about the shaky breath before the starting buzzer. The moment you look around and everyone seems bigger, faster and stronger. And the choice to keep going anyway one stroke, one kick, one splash at a time. A fun and inspiring kids podcast about swimming, resilience, confidence, perseverance, bravery and believing in yourself, perfect for children aged 4–8 and their families. Because courage isn’t being the fastest swimmer in the pool… It’s staying in the race when you’re not.

Tentacles in the deep end big.

Ruby has a problem. A BIG one. Tentacles-in-the-deep-end big. Because there is obviously a Kraken living at the bottom of the pool. Obviously. So while other kids are happily splashing around, Ruby is staying exactly where she is thank you very much: the safe end. The definitely-no-sea-monsters end. But Hat has a different idea. Suddenly the pool becomes a wild ocean and one extremely dramatic imaginary Kraken. And somewhere between the shallow end and the deep end, Ruby discovers something sneaky about bravery: you do not have to leap. Sometimes brave looks like going slow.
