All about Growth Spurts!

from Wise Up! Hosted by Emma and Katherine

In this episode, Emma and Katherine dive into the fascinating (and sometimes awkward!) world of growth spurts. They explore what actually happens when kids suddenly shoot up in height, why our bodies need so much food and sleep during these times, and the role of hormones in making it all happen. The sisters also share funny personal stories about clothes that don’t fit overnight, mystery aches and pains, and the joys (and struggles) of keeping up in sports when your body is changing fast. Tune in for science, laughs, and real-life experiences about one of the biggest parts of growing up!
