How do rainbows form? 🌈

The rain stops, the Sun comes out, and someone shouts, “Rainbow!” But where did all those colours come from?

This week, Christie answers a question from Bella, aged eight, from Brisbane. Follow sunlight through a raindrop, find out why you and a friend see slightly different rainbows, and discover how a rainbow can be a full circle. Plus: the truth about that pot of gold at the end.

Have a science question for Christie? Send it to squizkids@thesquiz.com.au, and it could feature in a future Science Short!

Where in the world are we going? Pack your imaginary passport and buckle up for a Kids v Adults Road Trip Quiz with a geography twist!

Bryce has 20 questions to test the whole car: ten for the kids and ten for the adults. Can you spot a country from its flag, find your way around the continents, or name the place where nasi goreng is on the menu? From icy Antarctica to the Eiffel Tower, this trip goes everywhere without anyone asking, “Are we there yet?”

Keep score, settle the family bragging rights, and stick around for this week’s birthday shout-outs and the Birthday Reggae Tune!
