One of the best pressies I ever did get from hubby was an iPod, a Classic I think it's called. It matters not, the important thing is how you use it.
I use it for podcasts mostly, free ones!
I use iTunes to download a library then I synchronise to the iPod. The BBC website is filled with pods for casting... great fun. I personally love Gardener's Question Time, Books and Authors and the Friday Night Comedy which is always topical.
On other sites you can also subscribe and download mini episodes of children's programmes: The Sesame Street podcast still amuses my two when bored shopping or the like and they are 5 and 7yo! Lately it has been my pod of choice as the cuddly characters have shared the screen with David Beckham, Jack Black, Hugh Jackman, Jake Gyllenhaal to name but a few... Check it out, it may save you for a fractious time during the long summer holidays....
I have about 30 Sesame Streets downloaded onto our Archos (a portable DVR). I don't go anywhere without it it. It's a fabulous thing! I keep my ipod for moi! And I love it so...

ReplyDeleteTechnodoll: Oh true, that shuffle thing is so funny, sometimes I get the odd Christmas Carol as I flip-flop in to get cool drinks.... I'm humming it before I realise what's playing..
Agneta: I watch Sesame Street because I love the Cookie Monster.... I may be related to the Cookie Monster!
