It's right here. 11 00:00:40,880 --> 00:00:41,440 Speaker 5: Oh no. 12 00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:47,560 Speaker 3: Welcome to story Time by Lingo Kids, where we discover 13 00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:50,720 Speaker 3: fascinating facts about the world around us and the fun 14 00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:55,480 Speaker 3: of play learning. Let's talk about water in nature. Why 15 00:00:55,480 --> 00:00:58,360 Speaker 3: don't creeks always have the same amount of water? Where 16 00:00:58,360 --> 00:01:00,800 Speaker 3: does the water come from? And where does it go? 17 00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:02,800 Speaker 3: Let's find out? 18 00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:07,320 Speaker 2: This is terrible. Where's the Greek It's. 19 00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:08,240 Speaker 4: Right here. 20 00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:12,319 Speaker 2: Where it used to be, right here. I don't know 21 00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:16,679 Speaker 2: what happened. It's just rocks now, well, we can't use 22 00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:22,000 Speaker 2: our floaties. Glod bye, rats, Slow down. 23 00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:26,360 Speaker 3: Everybody, it's not just rocks. Look, I see plenty of 24 00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:29,200 Speaker 3: puddles and actually a little water flowing too. 25 00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:34,720 Speaker 2: We can't even go swimming. We could if we were Bob, 26 00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:39,320 Speaker 2: that's true. Sorry, I took everyone here. 27 00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:44,200 Speaker 1: It's okay, Elliott, but I don't did it where did 28 00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:44,960 Speaker 1: the world go? 29 00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:48,760 Speaker 2: I don't know. It used to be right here. 30 00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:54,560 Speaker 3: Who did all the water? Nobody took the water, Lisa, 31 00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:59,800 Speaker 3: But you're all asking great questions. Where did the water go? 32 00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:00,960 Speaker 3: Kids at home? 33 00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:13,120 Speaker 2: And he guesses, maybe and most drink it all. 34 00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:15,600 Speaker 4: Maybe it's sunk into the dirt. 35 00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:17,680 Speaker 2: Maybe someone stole. 36 00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:18,320 Speaker 4: It for their sprinkler. 37 00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:22,200 Speaker 2: Good guesses. But those are quite right. 38 00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:30,120 Speaker 3: Yes, Billy, the creek is low because there hasn't been 39 00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:31,280 Speaker 3: a lot of rain lately. 40 00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:35,520 Speaker 2: Wait a minute, what does rain have to do with 41 00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:39,080 Speaker 2: the creek, Billy, Rain is not the kind of water 42 00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:40,200 Speaker 2: we're talking about. 43 00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:47,799 Speaker 3: Actually, Billy says, rain is the kind of water you're 44 00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:52,720 Speaker 3: talking about. When it rains, the water flows down to 45 00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:57,440 Speaker 3: creeks and fills them up. When there's a lot of rain, 46 00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:03,520 Speaker 3: the creek gets higher. But when there is no rain, 47 00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:06,040 Speaker 3: or only a little rain, the creek gets lower. 48 00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:11,480 Speaker 4: So that's why the water is low, because there hasn't 49 00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:12,880 Speaker 4: been a lot of freely. 50 00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:17,680 Speaker 2: Yes, maybe we should come back when it's raining. 51 00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:22,680 Speaker 3: Well, it doesn't have to be raining exactly, it doesn't. 52 00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:26,080 Speaker 3: It's more about which time of year there's plenty of 53 00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:29,560 Speaker 3: water flowing down to the creek from the hills. Creeks 54 00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:33,040 Speaker 3: fill up after rainy weeks, not just a day. They 55 00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:37,440 Speaker 3: can also fill up from melted snow. Well an he 56 00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:40,160 Speaker 3: guesses about which time of year creeks are fullest. 57 00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:52,600 Speaker 5: Kids at home, what do you think, Well. 58 00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:56,440 Speaker 2: It usually rends a lot in the spring, and snow 59 00:03:56,600 --> 00:03:59,840 Speaker 2: melts in the spring too, since it's not cold anymore. 60 00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:04,760 Speaker 3: That's right, So maybe the creek is full stream spring. 61 00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:09,960 Speaker 3: That's right. Creeks and rivers are usually highest during springtime. 62 00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:14,040 Speaker 2: Wait a minute, so creek water comes from rain and 63 00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:19,360 Speaker 2: snowing the springtime, but anyone happens. What do you mean, Cowie? 64 00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:24,119 Speaker 2: Where does the water go after it's sunflowing around here? 65 00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:26,479 Speaker 2: Where does it go after that? 66 00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:34,400 Speaker 3: Yes, Billy, the water from little creeks keeps on flowing 67 00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:37,520 Speaker 3: downhill until it joins up with a bigger river. 68 00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:43,920 Speaker 2: Whoa, then where does the river go? 69 00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:51,880 Speaker 3: That's right, Billy. The water keeps on flowing downhill until 70 00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:53,240 Speaker 3: it reaches the sea. 71 00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:55,680 Speaker 5: No way. 72 00:04:56,839 --> 00:05:01,080 Speaker 4: Well, I wanted to swim, but our water already left. 73 00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:02,719 Speaker 2: It's probably in the river. 74 00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:06,840 Speaker 4: Were a scene now, Sorry, I brought everyone here at 75 00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:10,440 Speaker 4: the wrong time. I thought it was going to be special, 76 00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:12,800 Speaker 4: but it's the wrong time of year. 77 00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:16,520 Speaker 3: Do you think it might still be special? 78 00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:17,839 Speaker 4: No? 79 00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:19,000 Speaker 2: No, not really. 80 00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:23,480 Speaker 3: Now slow down everyone, let's close our eyes and listen. 81 00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:29,960 Speaker 3: Kids at home you can close your eyes too. 82 00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:34,640 Speaker 2: I like these sounds. 83 00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:39,919 Speaker 3: There are also exciting creatures in these low waters. 84 00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:44,920 Speaker 4: Really, yes, I see an insect running. 85 00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:49,000 Speaker 2: On top of the water. That's a water skipper. 86 00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:53,119 Speaker 3: They can stay afloat even when holding fifteen times their weight. 87 00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:57,000 Speaker 3: That would be like an adult person floating while holding 88 00:05:57,040 --> 00:05:57,880 Speaker 3: a direct. 89 00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:02,960 Speaker 2: No way, eh, bottles empty. It just has some rocks. 90 00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:04,800 Speaker 3: Take a closer look. 91 00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:11,239 Speaker 5: Wait, they're not rocks. Snails Yep. 92 00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:15,000 Speaker 3: Snails don't have hands to eat, so they use their long, 93 00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:18,240 Speaker 3: rough tongues to screp food into their mouths. 94 00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:21,440 Speaker 4: There's nothing in my puddle. 95 00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:22,560 Speaker 5: Are you sure? 96 00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:25,520 Speaker 2: A craw dad? 97 00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:26,880 Speaker 3: That's right. 98 00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:31,040 Speaker 2: Wow, it looks like a lobster.

The water is low, but it's 103 00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:43,799 Speaker 2: still special. 104 00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:49,080 Speaker 3: Look, Cowie is taking off her shoes.

Me too, me. 111 00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:31,480 Speaker 3: Three Lingo Kids listeners, thanks for exploring the creek with us. 112 00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:34,920 Speaker 3: We learned that water from one place can be connected 113 00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:38,560 Speaker 3: to water somewhere else. That's why creeks are higher during 114 00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:43,160 Speaker 3: the rainy season. We also learned that water flows downhill, 115 00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:47,600 Speaker 3: with creeks eventually joining rivers and rivers flowing into seas. 116 00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:52,200 Speaker 3: Even though swimming is fun, we discovered that creek environments 117 00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:55,440 Speaker 3: are full of life and interesting things even when the 118 00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:59,480 Speaker 3: water's low.
