Show Notes
Discover the fascinating earth science and geology behind how giant mountains and rocks break down to create the sand on our beaches. Join Dr. Owl, Emma, and Ziggy the robot as they explore the slow but powerful process of weathering, from ice karate-chopping boulders to rivers acting like giant rock blenders. You will even learn why some sand is pink and why you might be stepping on ancient dinosaur crumbs!
