KIDSPIRATION VIDEOS
A variety of interesting subjects—kids interviewing professional experts about their unique jobs!
Teachers, parents and librarians: These videos of kids interviewing adults about their careers provide great non-fiction connections to novels and can augment a science, math or social studies lesson.
