Boozhoo Nanaboozhoo Video: Maple Sugar - "Ziinzibaakwad"

Nana Boozhoo and Natasha the stars of the show!

A puppet podcast by Michael Lyons, supported by the MN Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund

Michael Lyons is the creator of the puppet podcast Boozhoo Nanaboozhoo.

This year, he's creating videos for KAXE/KBXE. We'll learn Ojibwe culture and language and get to see for ourselves the wonderful relationship of Natasha and Nanaboozhoo.

Today, the Ojibwe word of the day is "Ziinzibaakwad" – meaning maple sugar. Nanaboozoo tells the story of how Gichi Manadoo gave maple syrup to the Anishinaabeg.
