About this listen
Every February, Walter the Magnificent takes center stage on Groundhog Day to predict the seasons, soaking up the cheers, the cameras, and the spotlight. But when it’s time for him to retire, his shy son Archie suddenly finds himself pushed toward a future he’s not sure he really wants. With some gentle encouragement, he learns that sometimes you have to follow your own path and not just what feels like destiny.
Join Carie, Lincoln, and Eliza as they dig, design, and discover the surprising world of groundhogs in this week’s episode.
Kids will discover:
- Why groundhogs build underground homes called burrows
- How scientists excavate burrows to learn about animal behavior
- If groundhogs really predict the weather
- Why respecting animal homes helps keep wildlife safe
