53. Curiosity: A Coop Full of Questions

Lamplighter Kids Stories
About this episode

Our virtue in this episode is: Curiosity! Come meet Nugget, a chicken whose questioning mind leaves her little rest. She’s always wondering about the world around her. Unfortunately, her fellow hen friends don’t seem to care about her questions. They’re happy to simply eat food, dust bathe, and sleep. Poor Nugget feels alone with all her questions, but… perhaps not entirely alone. Join us as Nugget finds some surprising companions along the way! 


Discussion questions for kids:


Question 1) What are some of the good things you are curious about? How can you find out the answers to your curiosity? 


Question 2) Think about some of the things that have been invented due to someone being curious about it. What are your favorite inventions?

Now you can watch Lamplighter adventures come to life in our gentle, storybook-style animated series in the Lamplighter Kids Club and on YouTube.
