Squiz the World goes to… Scotland

Each fortnight, we give the world globe a spin and see where we land. Then we take the kids of Australia on an audio excursion to visit that country and its people.

Join your captain, Christie Kijurina, on an audio adventure to Scotland, a country of rugged Highlands, ancient castles and deep, mysterious lochs. We’ll discover why Scotland’s national animal is a unicorn, meet the legendary creatures hiding in its folklore, find out why people toss giant wooden poles at the Highland Games, and explore the Scottish inventions that helped change the world.

Strap yourselves into the Squiz Kids Super Fast Supersonic Jetliner and get ready to take a squiz at Scotland.
