A Miracle of Nature: The Science of Trees

From the podcast Bedtime History: Inspirational Stories for Kids and Families

·08:28
Trees begin their lives as tiny seeds that sprout roots and shoots when they get enough water, sunlight, and warmth. As a tree grows, its roots spread underground to absorb water and nutrients. The trunk grows taller and thicker each year, adding rings that show the tree’s age. Leaves help trees make food through photosynthesis, using sunlight and air. Trees can live for many years and provide oxygen, shade, food, and homes for animals. Understanding how trees grow helps explain why forests are so important to life on Earth. 👉 Try Cocomelon Sing & Play for Free on your smart TV Volley App 👉 Head to ⁠⁠⁠MarleySpoon.com/offer/bedtimehistory⁠⁠⁠ for up to 25 FREE meals! 📖 We published our first book, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Explorer Society: World's Fair Conspiracy⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 🎉 Check out our new show, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Bedtime Safari⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠! 📢 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Donate via Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ for a shout-out! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠📺⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠500+ YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Videos⁠
