Have you ever tried to hug a tree so big you couldn’t reach all the way around? In today’s episode, we’re finding out how scientists (and curious kids!) can figure out a tree’s age—without asking it! Learn all about tree rings, discover some truly ancient trees, and play fun games like “True or False” and “What’s in the Tree?”

Curious Kids Everyday is a daily, interactive podcast that respects your child’s intelligence and curiosity. Each episode is designed to stretch young attention spans with thoughtful questions, playful learning, and engaging games. I created this to be a show I would be happy to have my kids listen to.
