Stories Mother Told: African Folktales

Today we will be going through another Moroccan tale. This story explores the formation of the Sahara and is also a great reminder that lies have consequences. It shows us how little things can build up and result in big consequences. Like the saying goes "Small drops of water make a mighty ocean" or in this case, tiny grains of sand make a mighty Sahara"".

I hope you enjoy this piece of our history. Sit back and Relax, let me take you back to Africa.

What is Stories Mother Told: African Folktales?

Stories are a big part of the African culture and growing up in the city of Port-Harcourt, these stories shaped my childhood. Times are different now and these bedtime stories which were passed down through generations are not as popular with children as they once were. This podcast aims to bring these stories to the new generation of African children and introduce everyone else to these wonderful stories from the motherland. The lessons and values learnt from these will never be forgotten. Welcome to Stories Mother Told.
