Why does an elephant's tummy rumble? With Jonathan Balcombe. Why do we get pins and needles? How do mirrors reflect?

Everything Under The Sun

We're back for the sixth episode of Season 7! Everything Under The Sun has been nominated for Best British Podcast in the kids category, has a paperback book of Everything Under The Sun OUT NOW and has moved to Bali, Indonesia!

We're going to be having lots of fun answering kids' questions from all over the world.

This week the questions are:

Why does an elephant's tummy rumble? Answering this one we have Jonathan Balcombe—a scientist and animal-lover based in Canada, and an expert in all things elephants! Thank you so much Jonathan.

Why do we get pins and needles? We learn about that horrid tingly feeling we get under our skin for when we've been sitting still for just a little too long!

How do mirrors reflect? I'm sure we've all wondered about how we can see ourselves in a mirror—and no, it's not magic! I'm so excited to tell you about the science behind seeing your own reflection.

Find out all about elephants, our wonderful bodies, and the mysteries of light on this week's episode!
