SciShow Kids

In this engaging episode of SciShow Kids, Jessi and her robot friend Squeaks explore the incredible survival strategy of the Wood Frog. While most animals migrate or hibernate to escape freezing temperatures, the Wood Frog has a unique adaptation that allows it to freeze solid during the winter and thaw out alive in the spring. The video explains the science behind this phenomenon, introducing students to concepts like states of matter, crystal formation, and biological adaptations.
