Do you know about snow? ❄️

Sleep Tight Media / Starglow Media
About this episode

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.

Sleep Tight!, Sheryl & Clark
