Creation stories from around the world, dramatised for radio. An immersive audio adventure back to the beginning time… Why are we here, how did we get here and who are we anyway?

In the Beginning brings ten of these ancestral tales to life. These stories transport us through the cosmos, into dreamtime, down a golden chain and through nature’s arc where we meet animals, gods and spirits - the makers, shapers and creators There’s a summer storm and it’s been raining all day, on and off, then on again. The children are inside with Hawa, our storyteller. She has been gathering creation stories since the beginning of time, from every corner of the earth. Where will she take us today?

The result is a quirky, heartwarming and fascinating insight into the lives of young children in a broad range of cities, towns and countryside villages around the UK. They talk about their hobbies, their religion, their families and their upbringing, and they take the Fun Kids listeners out and about with them as they get up to all sorts - including BMXing, skateboarding, climbing Mount Snowdon and paddleboarding off the coast of Wales!
