About this episode

Did you know? We are back with another episode of Sleep Tight Science, and in this episode, we will learn about trees. Have you ever wondered about how trees grow? How can you tell how old they are? Why are trees so important? In this episode, we are going to talk about all these things. With the help of Craig Tupper, a New Brunswick, Canada forester, we will try to answer some questions about trees. 

Sleep Tight!,
