In today's episode, we find out why food "goes bad" and what's really happening when milk sours, fruit turns brown, or bread grows mold. We explain how bacteria and mold eat food to get energy and help recycle nutrients back into nature... and why the foods that spoil fastest are often the healthiest for us! Curious Kids Every Day is a daily, interactive podcast that respects your child's intelligence and curiosity. Each episode is designed to stretch young attention spans with thoughtful questions, playful learning, and engaging games. I created this to be a show I would be happy to have my kids listen to. Please visit CuriousKidsEveryDay.com to get a free printable with activity ideas that don't involve screens. Those are the best kinds of adventures to have!
