This game is about nature. It is about the forest. You can see lots of amazing animals. You can learn about the top of the tree, the middle, the bottom, and even the inside and top of a log. One of the best ones is a bird that says, “Drink your tea!!” You will experience the life of nature. This game is amazing.

Is it hard to breathe in the desert? by Saskia

Is it hard to breathe in the desert? by Saskia

This question was asked during a discussion of how trees produce oxygen, so that people can breathe. Saskia wanted to know if places without many trees, such as deserts, would be harder to breathe in. Great thinking!

Pretty amazing. It seems that everywhere we look in the solar system, there are things to surprise us. The speaker in this video is a little hard to understand, but he said something very interesting – that the salt in the water, plus other discoveries they made, mean that there are the right chemicals for possibly creating life. Forget life on other planets – we should be looking for life on other moons!

Most of the Earth is covered by water. But what would it look like if you took all the water away? National Geographic’s special, Drain the Ocean, shows us!

This excerpt from the program is about one of my favorite places, the Big Island of Hawaii. When I was in Volcanoes National Park, I had no idea that I was standing near the tallest mountain on Earth!
