Minute physics: ‘cool physics and other sweet science’

Is it better to walk or run in the rain?

A very cool youtube channel with over 400 million views!

There are tons of fascinating videos answering all the questions that kids (and grown-ups!) tend to ask, including: Why are stars star-shaped?, Why is the sky blue?, and How do rainbows work? (The last two are explained in just ten seconds each — an impressive feat!)

If you like these videos, check out the sister channel Minute Earth.

As always, I recommend checking out all videos before watching them with your kids. I also recommend enabling YouTube’s Safety Mode

Minute Earth

Where did Earth’s water come from?

MinuteEarth is a spin-off channel created by Henry Reich of MinutePhysics fame and others. It covers the physics, chemistry and biology of our planet, including a great explanation of why rivers meander, how trees survive winter and what skin is for.

The short videos include animations, images and movie clips, as well as excellent narration.

If you like Minute Earth check out the sister channel Minute Physics.

Fast science – Biology

AsapScience   ‘Making science make sense’ 👨‍🔬

is a two person team based in Toronto who produce short animated videos about science; mostly biology. Short and snappy, the videos are great for most kids aged 8 & up and their adults.

Here is one of their videos (which is fine for all ages). If you like it, check out their channel on youtube.
