Introduction to Curiosity

Curious minds of all ages love exploring the wonders of the world, and now there's a fun way for children to engage with fascinating questions through the podcast "Everything Under the Sun," hosted by Molly Oldfield. She addresses children's most intriguing inquiries, like whether female crickets can sing.

Do Female Crickets Sing?

While most people associate cricket songs with male crickets—who produce their rhythmic, chirping calls to attract mates—female crickets actually communicate in subtler ways. Female crickets might not sing like their male counterparts, but they do have their own methods of expressing themselves, including gestures and body language that convey their mood and intentions.

Why Does the Earth Spin?

But that’s not all! As kids delve into these subjects, they can also ponder the big mysteries of our planet, such as why the Earth spins. This phenomenon is a result of the planet's formation; billions of years ago, as dust and gas coalesced to create the Earth, it began rotating due to the angular momentum from that process. This rotation is essential not just for day and night cycles, but it also helps create the Earth's magnetic field, which protects us from harmful solar radiation.
