Media + Podcasting
Small Talk Studios: Where Big Ideas Begin Small
Calling all future streamers, podcasters, vloggers, and storytellers!
At The Young Innovators Collective, we believe every child has something worth sharing—and Small Talk Studios is where they get to do just that.
Hands-On Learning
In this hands-on, laugh-filled, storytelling-powered course, young creators explore the art of podcasting, video content, interviewing, and editing. Along the way, they’ll learn how to structure a story, lead a conversation, share their passions, and maybe even drop in a sound effect or two.
This Class Isn't About Going Viral
It’s a studio for young creators to find their voice, shape their stories, and have a ton of fun doing it. Whether they’re recording an advice show, editing their own mockumentary, or creating "listening letters" to their future selves, kids are at the center of the process—from idea to mic to final cut.

Inspired by Montessori and Reggio Emilia, we follow the child's curiosity over perfection.
