How Is Sand Made? – Earth Science & Geology for Kids

from STEM with Dr. Owl · host Orbital Owl

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!  Learning Connection: NGSS DCI: ESS2.A – Earth Materials and Systems (Weathering)
