Captain Curious: Why is a Day on Mercury Longer than a Year?

Curious Kids Every Day: A Daily Educational Podcast

Did you know a single day on Mercury lasts longer than its whole year? In this episode, Captain Curious takes listeners on an unforgettable journey to the closest planet to the Sun! Along the way, we explore why the temperatures are so extreme, what the surface is like, and we celebrate two birthdays using a time machine.

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.
