Brazil for Kids: Explore Gems and Minerals, Rivers and Wildlife

In this episode, we’re headed to a city called Belo Horizonte in Brazil. ?? You’ll get to meet 12-year-old Theo, who will take us on an exciting tour of the unique wildlife of his home country. We’ll learn about adorable monkeys, scary piranhas, tropical birds and the largest rodent in the world. We’ll also learn about the impact humans have on some of these animals and what we can do to help protect them. Theo’s home state, Minas Gerais, is also known for its minerals and gems. So, if you love rocks, you’ll love this episode!
