We're back for the ninth episode of Season 7! Everything Under The Sun has been nominated for Best British Podcast in the kids category, has a paperback book of Everything Under The Sun OUT NOW and has moved to Bali, Indonesia!

We're going to be having lots of fun answering kids' questions from all over the world.

This week the questions are:

Why do people get lines on their face when they get old? Answering this one we have Ross Barr. He's a specialist in women's health, and an acupuncturist. That means he sticks tiny little needles into people's bodies to cure them of all sorts of things! It sounds painful, but it really isn't—in fact most people find it very relaxing! And he certainly knows a thing or two about wrinkles...

How does sunscreen work? It's super important that you wear it in the sun, and I'm sure everyone listening has—but how does it actually work?

And finally: How are stars formed? We zoom off into outer space to find out how those mysterious balls of light are made in the first place.

Today is the 44th episode of Everything Under the Sun, a weekly podcast answering all the most pressing questions children around the world have about life on earth.

Our first question comes from Violet and Tabitha who are twins! They would like to know where identical twins come from? To answer their question we have Dr. Chris van Tulleken who is a doctor AND an identical twin! So find out everything about how baby identical twins are made. It’s amazing that if you’re an identical twin there is another person who looks just like you moving around the world!

The second question is from Allie and it is about baby penguins. She asks why do the feathers of baby penguins change when they get older? We talk about how baby penguins need soft warm feathers and why they change when they get big.

Then we head back to human babies, with a question about talking from Iris who asks how do babies learn to talk? Charles Fernyhough wrote a book about his daughter Athena and how she grew up and he answers her question brilliantly, telling us how babies learn the pattern and sounds of the language their family speaks inside their Mummy’s tummy and can easily learn different languages when they’re born.

Last week we had a competition to win a copy of Oliver Jeffers’ new book, The Fate of Fausto, it’s about a man who is so greedy he wants to own everything on the earth, including a flower, a sheep, a mountain and even the sea instead of just appreciating the world’s beauty and letting it be.

Hear are our favourite answers and find out who won! 

A huge thank you the wonderful Dr. Chris for talking to us about identical twins and to Charles Fernyhough for chatting to us about babies and how they learn to talk and of course a big thank you to Iris, Allie, Violet and Tabitha for this week’s questions! Thank you also to Harper Collins children’s books and Oliver Jeffers for the copy of The Fate of Fausto! As well as to Tyler Simmons Dale, Ash Gardner, Audio Networks and Billy Colours.

Do send in your questions about anything and everything under the sun to my email molly@everythingunderthesun.co.uk check out the website www.everythingunderthesun.co.uk for more information about how to do that.
