Join Jill and Liz as they answer the questions “Why does cool air come out of a person's mouth when they blow (like to cool off hot soup), but warm air comes out when a person goes HAAAAAAH (think warming your hands on a cold day)?” and “Do hummingbirds really hum?” We also have a fact about gardens and a book recommendation you are sure to love!
