Great question! Some animals, like sea turtles, can get cold-stunned during chilly winter weather. When this happens, it's like they are frozen, unable to move. Wildlife experts often find and rescue cold-stunned critters. They nurse the animal back to the health before releasing them back into the wild! 🐢

Hi, Anastasia. I'm sorry if you're having a hard time with your classmate. It's really tough when someone is being mean. You could try talking to your classmate and explaining how they are making you feel. You could also try staying out of situations where you are together. Most of all, I recommend telling a trusted adult like a teacher or parent if a classmate is being mean to you.

I agree, Logan! I'm a huge fan of both! 😸

Thanks for your question, Chloe! Chlorine is a powerful cleaning chemical. Plain chlorine is not safe for your eyes. A common use for chlorine is in pools.

You can help protect your eyes with swimming goggles and by rinsing off after being in a pool. 🏊
