It's sad when a little child understands that it's not OK to starve people, but grown adults don't.

So much of our understanding of the human body has come through the difficult process of studying those who have tragically lost a particular faculty. Here's a reference for this conversation: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29510103/

Yes, yes. I know this is wild speculation. But we had fun doing it. Here's a reference for it: pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC...

There are many old proverbs (especially about animals and the weather) that have proven to be true when approached scientifically. I should clarify that the book I'm writing is definitely NOT about vampires.

I must say, I'm quite pleased that these kids like Queen. For those of you finding my channel for the 1st time, I post on little observations my kids and I make, often with a bit of a science bend. We also post on books we're reading.

Yes, Big Kid in the conversation below was admonished for calling his brother a dummy. And little kid was duly admonished for calling him a dummy back. I edited it out of the pages below since I try to fit the Conversation series in 2 pages.

A few weeks ago, the kids became interested in old weather proverbs that still hold true. This conversation hurt a little. We recycle, we compost, we vote for those who seem to care for the environment. And ultimately, I can only hope for the best.

I haven't been able to find any reasonable theories as to why people may have developed lucid dreaming. I don't think we quite understand it yet. I did end up adding a lucid dream sequence to the book I'm currently writing, which was fun.

The latest post in my sleep series. My children experienced jet lag for the 1st time on a recent trip, which led to many fun conversations on sleep- why we need it, how other species sleep, etc. Today's topic: Why we dream

We had this conversation when were passing by some callery pear trees - which to me, smell like rotting fish. I'll go back and forth between this series and finishing up the sleep series over the next couple of months🧪

Have a great weekend everyone!

The book I'm working on is a young YA fantasy with many fantastical elements based on real-life science. So, I had to post this conversation with my kids. I'm off to get some REM sleep myself now. Wish you all a good night.

Another post in the sleep series. Hi. I'm a scientist turned writer working on a teen fantasy novel with sciencey themes. I post on books & this conversation with my kids series.

Happy new year everyone. Wish you all a wonderful 2025 ahead.
We have a couple of reviews for books we read over the holidays, and more posts on conversations my kids and I had on the topic of sleep coming up over the month of January. Looking forward to seeing you all around
