Their white feathers just make it look that way! Our Kids Crew takes you on a journey to understand why eagles are so special.

    At The Bottom of the Sea

    This time on The Children's Hour, the Kids Crew get aboard the JOIDES Resolution, virtually, while the ship is at sea off the coast of Portugal. We meet Amy Mayer, the Onboard Outreach Officer for the JOIDES Expedition 397, and research fellow Saray Sanchez.  Find the full episode post at https://www.childrenshour.org/the-bottom-of-the-sea/ We learn how the JOIDES brings up core samples from the ocean floor, that they then slice, x-ray, and study. Some of the soils they are bringing to the surface are over 300 million years old.  Scientists aboard the JOIDES stay for a short rotation, and collect as much data as possible. The ship is drilling for core samples 24 hours a day, 7 days a week when they are at the drilling site. The Kids Crew have a lot of questions for Amy and Saray about life on board a scientific research vessel.   We also hear a poem by Kenn Nesbitt, from his poetry playground Poetry4Kids.com. Mixed with great music celebrating the sea, get to the bottom of the ocean with us, this time on The Children's Hour. This episode was written, recorded, and produced by Katie Stone at the Sunspot Solar Studio in Albuquerque, New Mexico USA, with production help from Christina Stella and Sarah Gabrielli.

    Forests

    Join The Children’s Hour as we venture into the enchanting world of forests. Hosted by Katie Stone, along with the inquisitive Kids Crew and special guest Dr. Lisa Markovchik, an ecologist from WildEarth Guardians, this episode delves deep into the vital role forests play in sustaining life on Earth. Find the full episode page with the learning guide at https://childrenshour.org/forests Forests are more than just a collection of trees; they are dynamic ecosystems teeming with life and intricate relationships. By understanding the science and magic of forests, we can appreciate their value and the importance of conserving them for future generations. Step into the woods with us! Dr. Markovchick explains how forests are the lungs of the planet, and describes the important role they play in capturing carbon, and creating oxygen. By capturing carbon, forests help maintain the delicate balance in our atmosphere to sustain life on Earth. We also learn how the trees in a forest use complex mycorrhizal networks to help communicate with one another, and so much more. The mushrooms we see in the forest are just the fruiting bodies of these beings which help decompose the forest debris, and deliver chemicals necessary to keep trees healthy. You can learn a lot more about forests in our Forests Learning Guide at ChildrensHour.org This episode was produced by Katie Stone, our Executive Producer and our Senior Producer, Christina Stella, and our intern Thaniel Lentz, with live engineering by Chad Scheer.

    Squid

    This time on The Children's Hour, we explore one of the ocean's most abundant, and widely distributed animals: squid. The Kids Crew and Katie Stone meet Dr. Sarah McAnulty, a biologist and squid scientist who helps us understand these amazing creatures. Squid are in the cephalopod family with octopus, cuttlefish, and nautilus. This ancient family of marine invertebrates pre-date trees on Earth, and can be found in all oceans, at all depths. Find out how they fit into the fabric of life. The full episode post with the Learning Guide can be found at https://childrenshour.org/squid Squid are bioluminescent, like fireflies and some cave creatures we have learned about on The Children's Hour. The Colossal Squid is the largest of all squid and can eat a whale! They also have bioluminescent eyes that are the size of footballs. While we might have our current stories about aliens and spaceships in modern movies, squid are about as alien to most of us as any extra terrestrial. Mythology around cephalopods date back centuries. Dr. McAnulty explains how the stories of the "Kracken" came to be, and why they are not completely untrue! We also learn about Skype A Scientist, the organization that provides free scientific experts to any group on any topic. A science communicateor, Dr. McAnulty founded Skype A Scientist to increase direct conversations between the scientific community and the public. Skype a Scientist will provide free scientific experts on any topic to any group, organization, classroom, or wherever people want to learn more about science.  The choices we make when we eat seafood can help save endangered marine life. Dr. McAnulty discussed using the Monterey Bay Aquarium's guides to finding sustainable seafood. Find the guide and other tips at their website. The Children's Hour is written and produced by Katie Stone, with production support from Gus Tafoya and Sean Lovelace. This episode was recorded at Outpost Performance Space and was engineered by Chad Scheer. Thaniel Lentz is our intern.
