🎄✨ What’s Poppin’ Penny? is thrilled to bring back a fan-favorite holiday episode!

With her magical teddy bear, T.A., by her side, Penny experiences the warmth and wonder of Christmas Eve church services with her grandmother, Spicy. The evening is filled with beautiful hymns, inspiring messages, and a sense of community. Meanwhile, back at home, her dad, Jabari, and her mom, Zoe, are busy preparing for the first night of Kwanzaa. At the neighborhood community center, the family gathers to celebrate unity, self-determination, and the rich cultural heritage that shapes their lives.

Remember to listen to What Do You Believe? (pt.2) to hear the rest of our story.
