Whoosh! How fast are flash floods?

Ever wonder what exactly is a flash flood? Are all floods flash floods? We have a fascinating episode featuring Nichole Cronce, a hydrologist from the National Weather Service. Join Rob, Hank and Sam as we learn not only about the science of floods, but how to stay safe when the storms get strong or the river starts running high! * Episode Extra for middle school: LINK [https://youtu.be/qwVXwFCF3sg] Three questions for families to discuss: 1. How will we know if a flood might happen? 2. Where is a safe place we can go if there is flooding? 3. What should we bring with us to stay safe if we need to leave quickly? NOAA's Jetsteam resources for families: * The Hydrologic Cycle - Great for younger audiences and includes several activities to demonstrate the concepts.

How ultrasound 'sees' inside the body (Cardiac sonographer)

This week, we dive beneath the surface - exploring the human heart not through sight, but through sound. Joined by Victoria Rivera, a cardiac sonographer at Texas Children’s Hospital, we uncover the fascinating world of sonography and echolocation. Discover how sound waves reveal the inner workings of the heart, and get an inside look at one of the most incredible careers in modern medicine. âžĄïž Level-Up Texas: ⁠More Info⁠ [https://youthengagement.tamu.edu/level-up-texas/index.html] âžĄïž Texas Children's Hospital: https://www.texaschildrens.org [https://www.texaschildrens.org] 💬 Submit your kids' questions! ⁠www.cumbrekids.org/questions⁠ [https://www.cumbrekids.org/questions] 💛 Support this podcast by joining The Curious Club: ⁠LINK⁠ [https://www.cumbrekids.org/curious-club] đŸŽ™ïž This episode is available in Spanish on our sister podcast, ⁠CrĂĄneo: Ciencia para niños curiosos⁠ [https://linktr.ee/craneociencia] 🎧 More podcasts by Cumbre Kids: ⁠Learn more⁠ [https://linktr.ee/cumbrekidspods] đŸ‘šâ€đŸ‘©â€đŸ‘§â€đŸ‘Š A message for parents about our values: ⁠LINK [https://bit.ly/3LqBmJv]

aflevering Why is it hard to make good choices? (Behavioral Economist) artwork

Why is it hard to make good choices? (Behavioral Economist)

If you *choose* to listen to this episode, you’ll learn all about the science of making decisions! 🧠✹ We’re joined by Dr. Marco Palma from the Texas A&M Human Behavior Laboratory, as we seek to understand how the brain makes decisions, why we sometimes make bad decisions, and the biology of how the body reacts when we’re faced with decisions! This episode is part of the “Cool Jobs for Curious Kids” series, exploring 8 STEM careers and the science behind their jobs! This series is a collaboration with LevelUp Texas, powered by Texas A&M University. âžĄïž Level-Up Texas: More Info [https://youthengagement.tamu.edu/level-up-texas/index.html] âžĄïž Texas A&M Human Behavior Lab: https://hbl.tamu.edu/ [https://hbl.tamu.edu/] 💬 Submit your kids' questions! www.cumbrekids.org/questions [https://www.cumbrekids.org/questions] Episode activities 🕒 10-10-10 decisions! When your family is thinking about a decision, talk about how this decision is going to make you feel in 10 minutes, in 10 days, and in 10 months! For example: “If I practice the piano today, I will probably feel pleased with myself in 10 minutes. In 10 days I might have learned something small and be happy about my progress. And in 10 months I might know several new songs!” 🛒 Grocery Store Economics! Next time you go to a grocery store, talk as a family about where things are in the store. For example: Where is the milk in the store and why? What is at ‘kid’ eye level and what is at ‘adult’ eye level? 💛 Support this podcast by joining The Curious Club: LINK [https://www.cumbrekids.org/curious-club] đŸŽ™ïž This episode is available in Spanish on our sister podcast, CrĂĄneo: Ciencia para niños curiosos [https://linktr.ee/craneociencia] 🎧 More podcasts by Cumbre Kids: Learn more [https://linktr.ee/cumbrekidspods] đŸ‘šâ€đŸ‘©â€đŸ‘§â€đŸ‘Š A message for parents about our values: LINK [https://bit.ly/3LqBmJv]
