Long before GPS, compasses, and maps, Polynesian wayfinders crossed the biggest ocean on Earth using only the stars, the waves, and the birds. 🌊 In this episode, Miss Delana (joined by special co-host Mr. Darien!) dives into the real history behind Moana's "We Know the Way": how master navigators like Mau Piailug memorized 220 stars, read the ocean like a drumbeat, and passed down a 3,000-year-old tradition through voice and song. Kids will play "What Would a Wayfinder Do?," learn a brand-new star chant, and write their own wayfinding song by the end of the episode. It's history, music, and ocean science all wrapped into one unforgettable adventure.
