Join Ben and Pia on an amazing journey to discover how brand new islands magically appear from the ocean! Have you ever wondered what happens when hot melted rock shoots up from the ocean floor like a giant underwater volcano?
In this super exciting adventure, Ben and Pia explore the incredible science behind volcanic islands! They'll tell you how islands are like giant birthday cakes rising from the sea, and why baby islands are too hot for visitors at first.
Did you know? The Hawaiian Islands were all born from underwater volcanoes millions of years ago! Each island is like a volcanic celebration that lasted for ages and ages!
You'll discover amazing facts like:
š How hot magma becomes solid rock when it hits cold ocean water
š¦ Why birds are the first gardeners on new islands
šļø How islands can actually move around the world (super slowly!)
š Why some islands disappear back into the ocean
Ben and Pia also imagine what islands might feel like when they first peek above the waves - maybe excited and nervous like the first day of school!
Think about this! If you could create your own magical island, what would it look like when it first pops up from the sea? What animals would you invite to live there?
Comment below and tell us about your dream island! We love hearing from curious minds like yours!
