MinuteEarth and Minute Physica

MinuteEarth and MinutePhysics are short animated YouTube series that explain earth science and physics concepts in quick, hand-drawn bursts. Each episode tackles one idea—why rivers curve, what gravity really is—with simple drawings and concise narration. Parents like that videos are engaging enough for teens but short enough to fit into morning time or as a hook before deeper study. They’re best for upper-elementary through high school students who enjoy science but might not pick up a textbook for fun. Because both channels are free, they offer enormous value as ongoing supplements across multiple years.
