About this listen

This week on Smartie Pants and the Big Why, we investigate one of life’s loudest mysteries: why do babies cry?


With help from Aelish (age 7), we dive into the chaos of tiny humans with very big feelings. Is it because sock-stealing gremlins are at work? Are tummy monsters pressing the panic button? Or are babies secretly setting off their own dramatic baby alarms for fun?


Join us as we tumble into a lively discussion about babies, crying and what’s really going on when they’re trying to tell us something... even before they can talk.


Perfect for curious kids aged 5–9 and their grown-ups who have definitely been woken up at 3am by a very loud little person.


Got a big “Why?” from your own Smartie Pants?
