Trees have birthdays too, and scientists find out when they are by studying their rings. This week on The Children's Hour we learn how to date trees, using dendrochronology with Dr. Peter M Brown from Rocky Mountain Tree Ring Research, which has a list of the world's oldest living trees.
We can learn more than just a tree's age when we study its rings. Scientists can tell a lot about climate, fires, and even human or animal scarring. This show is mixed with excellent, old tree-loving music.

The Children's Hour is a weekly, educational and entertaining public radio program for kids and families. Using excellent music, expert guests, talented kids and a format that is a proven success in growing and keeping listeners of all ages engaged.

The Children's Hour includes kids in all aspects of the production. We're dedicated to filling educational gaps, by focusing on civics, STEM, culture, and performance, using interviews with scientists, astronauts, civil servants, cultural educators, performers and others, and weaving shows together with a wide variety of musical genres.

Kids on our crew and in our community contribute content, design programming, and cohost our shows, live in public venues, and in studio.

We are happy to make station tags. Just reach out to us at info@childrenshour.org
