    How can you tell when someone is lying? And why do kids lie?

    How can you tell when someone is lying? And why do kids lie?

    In this episode we talk about lying. We try to answer what is a lie, what is a big lie, what's a small or white lie. We also talk about what makes kids (or others) lie and what we can do to prevent that or deal with it. This is a short conversation about this topic. We may have to do another show on this as the discussion was quite interesting.

    How is snow or rain formed?

    How is snow or rain formed?

    What is snow? What is rain? How are they different? How is snow formed? What is fog? All of this and more is answered in this episode as we take a nice walk on a snowy field.

    We also talk about how clouds form. Clouds are made from water vapor that cools down as it climbs higher. When the vapor cools it the water precipitates out of the air. The same thing happens on land when warmer moist air cools at night and then we get fog :)

    Traffic lights are pretty similar in most places, but not always everywhere. We talk about roads signs and driving conventions and standards. This is a good episode to learn how things could be different in places we haven't yet visited.
