When you think of natural disasters, what comes to mind? Droughts might not have been at the top of your list. But today, in this educational video, we are going to talk more about them.   So, what is a drought? A drought is a consistent period of dry weather that happens when an area gets much less than its normal amount of precipitation. Droughts can happen over months or years, depending on the circumstances and the area. They become an issue when the lack of water affects the usual water supply for irrigation, municipal and industrial needs, energy, and the ecosystem.   All droughts are not the same, and there are four main types: meteorological, agricultural, hydrological, and socioeconomic.   We hope you and your student(s) enjoyed learning about droughts!

Can you guess which type of bird we are going to talk about today? Of all the birds in the world, one has a leg up on the rest. Truly, they are tickled pink about it. If you guessed flamingos, you are correct! Today, in this educational video for kids, we are talking all about flamingos.   Would you be surprised to learn that flamingos are not born pink? Baby flamingos are actually born with soft, white feathers. Their color comes from the reddish and pink pigments in the food they eat. And, unlike their parents, baby flamingos have straight bills. They will begin to curl downward into the iconic flamingo shape as they grow.   Parent flamingos can actually identify their babies by the sounds of their voices. This is pretty cool as well as helpful, because flamingos are super social. Babies start leaving their parents and forming groups with other flamingos when they are as young as five days old. But, they still need their parents to help them eat, though. The parent flamingos feed the

In this video series for kids, we are learning about dinosaurs from A to Z. Today’s dino is the Triceratops! A major dinosaur fan favorite is the Triceratops. The name means "three-horned faced." Its name comes from the dinosaur's most prominent feature, its horns! It was named by the paleontologist Othniel Charles Marsh in 1889. He discovered the fossils of its skulls and horns in Wyoming. Triceratops lived about 66 million years ago. They mainly fed on plants and grasses that they could graze on. Weighing nearly 10,000 kilograms (more than 22,000 pounds or 11 tons), this mammoth armored beast was a challenging meal for a predator! Many herbivorous dinosaurs lived in herds as a means of protection from predators. Paleontologists know this because when they find fossils, they often discover the remains of multiple dinosaurs. We hope you and your student(s) enjoyed learning about the Triceratops! If you want even more information, head over to our website and download one of our many
