When we dig down deep, whether in the earth, or in our families, we find roots. The Kids Crew meets Braiding Sweetgrass author Robin Wall Kimmerer and the youth version adapter, Monique Gray Smith and dig into the meaning our of personal roots. Then we xplore the amazing journey of plant roots with naturalist educator and artist, Jane Westbrook. In honor of Earth Day, celebrate roots with The Children’s Hour.

This time on The Children’s Hour, we hop on frogs and toads with Senior Zoologist of the ABQ Biopark Zoo’s Amphibians and Reptiles, Josh Butler. Josh helps us understand what role they play in the environment around us. The kids in Extinction Diaries let us know how some frogs are faring in the wild, and why there’s an uphill hop for these fragile creatures to be safe from extinction.
