    Ancient Egypt - From the Vault

    Travel back thousands of years to one of the world’s most fascinating civilisations in this From the Vault episode of Squiz Kids Shortcut — Ancient Egypt. It was a place where pyramids scraped the sky, powerful pharaohs ruled the land, men and women wore eye makeup for surprising reasons, and the rich were carefully mummified for the afterlife. But how much of what we think we know about Ancient Egypt is actually true? Perfect for curious kids — and especially handy if Ancient Egypt is popping up in your classroom this year. Listen carefully… there’s a Squiz at the end! Link: ⁠How to mummify a chicken

    What are the different States of Matter and why do they change? Science Short

    Why does an ice cube melt… water boil… and steam disappear into thin air? This week’s Squiz Kids Science Short unpacks the states of matter — solids, liquids, gases… and the one you may not know, plasma. What are they really? What’s happening at the tiny particle level? And why does adding heat completely change how matter behaves? From frozen jumpers to glowing neon lights and the blazing Sun, we explore how energy makes particles move, spread out, or even lose tiny pieces called electrons. Solid. Liquid. Gas. Plasma. It’s not magic. It’s motion.

    Islam - From the Vault

    Ramadan has begun — a special month observed by millions of Muslims around the world, marked by fasting during daylight hours, prayer, generosity, and time with family and community. So this weekend, we’re revisiting one of our Squiz Kids Shortcuts to help explain more about Islam — what Muslims believe, how Ramadan is celebrated, and why the city of Mecca is so important. In this episode, Bryce and Amanda explore the basics of one of the world’s biggest religions, unpack traditions like fasting from sunrise to sunset, and discover the meaning behind important practices followed by Muslims everywhere. It’s a great listen if you’ve ever wondered why some classmates might be fasting this month — or if you’re simply curious to learn more about the world around you. Listen carefully — there’s a Squiz at the end!
