Brains On! Science podcast for kids

Why do we have friends?

Friendship rules! Friends help us work through problems, keep us company and bring joy to our lives. Making friends might have also helped our prehistoric ancestors survive and thrive! Still, friendship can be tough sometimes. In this episode, we’ll answer your friendship questions with Eileen Kennedy-Moore (a.k.a Dr. Friendtastic!) and hear some advice from a filmmaker with autism about making friends. Plus an all-new Mystery Sound! This episode was sponsored by: Indeed (<a class="c-link" href="http://indeed.com/BRAINS">Indeed.com/BRAINS</a> - Terms and conditions apply.
