In this episode, we are going to start to learn about the ocean, its origin, ocean life, and its importance. We might learn a few fun facts, too. In previous episodes, we learned a lot about animals in the ocean, waves, and weather, but somehow, we haven't taken the time to sit down and learn about the ocean as a whole. Sleep Tight!, Sheryl & Clark ❤️👂📖
In this episode, we are going to learn facts about the wonders of space and the surprising world of space junk! We'll learn facts about planets, stars, and the Sun, learn how spacecraft are launched and explore the secrets of the spacecraft graveyard deep in the Pacific Ocean. We'll also discover how scientists are tracking and tackling the growing clutter in Earth's orbit. Join us for a fun episode of science learning before bed!🛰️
In this episode, we’ll learn how animals survive the cold of winter. We’ll discover that animals use three strategies to make it through: hibernation, where they slow down and sleep through the cold; migration, where they travel long distances to find warmth and food; and adaptation, where they change their behavior or appearance to thrive in freezing temperatures. Whether it’s a bear snoozing in its den, geese flying south, or a snowshoe hare blending into the snow, we’ll explore the amazing ways animals face the chill of winter.
In this episode, we'll dive into the fascinating science behind video games. We'll explore how they'll tap into physics, applying Newton’s laws of motion and projectile motion. We'll see how chemistry plays a role, especially when characters mix elements to concoct new potions. The focus will also shift to biology, reflecting on ecosystems and character evolution that mirror our world. We'll peek at the programming and AI that bring other characters to life in these games. And we won't overlook the psychology and math woven into the gameplay. Plus, we'll take a glimpse at alien eyes and the creation of stars.
In this episode, we will learn about snow, what it is made of and the different colours it can be. Did you know that snow could be in different colours? We will discuss the water cycle and how important snow is for the water supply in many places. We will look at The Science of Snowflakes and discuss how they are created and how each is unique. We will examine how the temperature influences the design of the snowflake. We will answer questions including why reindeer’s antlers fall off, how raindrops are made, how many people are on the earth, and why Neptune looks darker than Uranus.
We're answering some cool and interesting questions you sent us in this episode. We answer questions about cats, numbers, and planets! Discover why cats have whiskers and tails, how ancient humans counted before numbers existed, and why numbers never end. We'll also explore why planets are round, whether Earth will last forever, and what might happen if you fell through a hole to the other side of the planet.
In this episode, we're learning all about reindeer! Discover how these incredible animals survive in the Arctic, their amazing migrations, the unique features of their antlers, and the science behind their warm, red noses. We'll also dive into their role in holiday traditions and the important connections they share with people and the environment.
In this episode, we’re exploring the world of LEGO! Discover how these iconic bricks are made, the fascinating science behind their strength and precision, and how they became a global favourite. From tiny plastic pellets to towering creations, we’ll explore the creativity, engineering, and fun that make LEGO so magical.
In this episode, we will learn about the world of pumpkins, turkeys, and Thanksgiving traditions. We will learn why pumpkins float, how turkeys run and fly faster than you might think, and the history behind some of your favourite fall customs. Plus, we’ll explore giant pumpkin pies, turkey snoods, and why leaves change colour in the fall. It’s a perfect mix of science, fun, and a little bit of holiday magic! Sleep Tight!, Sheryl & Clark ❤️👂📖
In this episode, we’ll explore these intelligent, playful marine mammals known for their friendliness and incredible behaviours. Learn how dolphins, part of the “toothed whale” family alongside orcas, differ from their close relatives and porpoises, and discover what makes them such clever and curious ocean dwellers. Sleep Tight!, Sheryl & Clark
In this episode, we're answering your questions! We'll learn why some animals use poop to build their homes—and whether it smells terrible, explore why cars need gas and oil, the science behind rising muffins, the importance of math, and why hair turns gray as we age. We'll also take a look at why siblings can sometimes be annoying, touching on psychology and life skills. Plus, we've sprinkled in surprising facts about gasoline, muffins, and even some quirky poop trivia to keep things interesting. So whether you're in bed, in the car, or enjoying some quality science time, let's jump into our first question! Sleep Tight!, Sheryl & Clark ❤️👂📖
In this episode, we'll journey through our home galaxy, the Milky Way, a vast spiral galaxy with over 100 billion stars, including our Sun. Located in the quieter Orion-Cygnus Arm, about 27,000 light-years from the center, our solar system orbits far from the powerful supermassive black hole, Sagittarius A*, which holds the galaxy together. We'll explore the three main types of galaxies—spiral, elliptical, and irregular—and imagine the technology that might one day let us travel beyond the Milky Way. Finally, we'll consider one of science's biggest mysteries: Are we alone in the galaxy? We'll learn how scientists search for life on planets in the "Goldilocks Zone," keeping us curious about what—and who—might be out there.
In this episode, we are going to learn about the animal kingdom’s strangest and grossest creatures! We’ll start with the housefly, discovering its unique habits like tasting with its feet and vomiting on its food, and move on to the resilient cockroach that can survive a week without its head. We’ll also learn about the hippopotamus’s unusual mating habits, the cube-shaped poop of wombats, and meet other creepy animals like tarantulas, giant squids, and vampire bats. Each creature may seem icky, but they all play important roles in nature, showcasing just how weird and wonderful the natural world truly is!
In this episode, we'll learn all about the human skeleton—the framework of 206 bones that give our body shape, support us and help us move. We'll explore how the skull, rib cage, and spine protect our most important organs and how our bones change as we grow. You'll also find out how the skeleton is divided into the axial and appendicular skeletons, each playing a key role in helping us move and stay safe. Finally, we'll learn why skeletons are used as symbols for Halloween, bringing some spooky fun into the holiday.
In this episode, we'll learn why rain falls in little drops instead of one big splash, why ice cracks when it melts, and how clouds move across the sky. We'll also explore the science behind why ice floats and why clouds are white—all thanks to another round of fantastic questions submitted by our curious listeners!
In this episode, we will learn that turtles are fascinating reptiles found in various regions and habitats worldwide. We will also learn about how their diets vary by species and explore how turtles communicate. From sea turtles migrating across oceans to tortoises roaming the land, turtles are highly adaptable and vital to their ecosystems.
In this episode, we will answer listener questions that explore how the universe works in fun and surprising ways. We learn that nothing can travel faster than the speed of light and explore what might happen if we could—like time slowing down and strange space effects. We also find out that there are stars much bigger than the Sun, how the Sun spins on its axis and how gravity, though invisible, holds everything in place. We will wrap up by understanding why air remains invisible despite being all around us but can still be felt and experienced in many ways, like wind or when we breathe.
In this episode, we explore the fascinating world of ants and learn about their impressive communication skills and unique behaviours. We discover that ants communicate through pheromones, antenna touching, vibrations, alarm signals, and trail marking to share important information like finding food or warning of danger. We also learn some cool facts, like how ants can lift up to 50 times their weight, work together as farmers with other insects, and even live in colonies with millions of members. Ants may be tiny, but they are highly organized and communicate in amazing ways to keep their colonies thriving!
In this episode, we explore some fascinating facts about our bodies, from how technology affects our health to tricky medical terms and how digestion works. We also learn about the surprising gases in farts, discover curious body parts like dimples and the appendix, and uncover fun facts about our amazing feet.
