Season 2
S02:E201 - Solids Liquids and Gases
Magic IS real - sort of. Nature creates its very own magic, turning gases to liquids, liquids to solids, and solids into gas. Harrison’s attic is full of magic today with instant ice cream, a flying guinea pig and a magician who makes water appear from nowhere!
S02:E202 - Sun
Harrison takes a close look at the biggest star in our solar system – the sun, and learns that everything DOES run (at least indirectly) on solar power. Without the sun, we wouldn’t… we couldn’t, even be here!
S02:E203 - Food & Nutrition
We have to eat, because our parents make us! But seriously, Harrison learns how good, healthy food helps us grow big and strong and smart, why foods taste different between boys and girls, and which junk foods disguise themselves to pretend that they’re healthy.
S02:E204 - Babies & Families
All babies need families for their survival. Harrison investigates why babies drink so much milk and poop so much in their diapers, and why they are so cute. He also finds out why parents are so bossy.
S02:E205 - Sight
How do we see? Why CAN’T we see some things? Why do cat’s eyes glow in the dark? Harrison sheds some light on one of our five most important senses: sight! He also learns that seeing more, doesn’t necessarily mean you can see well.
S02:E206 - Habitats
Without a habitat, neither plants, humans nor animals could survive. Why do worms come out when it’s wet? Why don’t dolphins live on land? How can fish breathe under water? Harrison finds out about the world we live in, and all of the little worlds within it!
S02:E207 - Structures
Structures are things that we build, that make life easier, like a house or a bridge. Harrison finds out how animals have been building structures for millions of years, as well as the best way to build structures, to keep them strong and sturdy, and realizes that humans could learn a lot from beavers.
S02:E208 - Teeth
Humans and animals have all different kinds of teeth because they eat all different kinds of things. Harrison finds out lots of new stuff about teeth, including why some are sharp and some are flat, why birds have beaks instead of teeth, and how overworked the poor Tooth Fairy is!
S02:E209 - Plants
Harrison discovers that plants are living things, and humans depend on them for survival not just for food and clothing, but also for the very air we breathe! Harrison investigates why flowers smell so nice and fruit tastes so good.
S02:E210 - Growth
Every living creature that is born grows up. But HOW do they grow, and WHY do they stop growing? Harrison finds out if girls grow faster than boys and if you can make yourself grow taller. He also uncovers the real difference between humans and other creatures, and how scientists are working to make us more like salamanders.
S02:E211 - Garbage and Recycling
Garbage is stinky and gross; but Harrison finds out that even smelly garbage can be useful, and that worms make great house pets, and why that tap water you’re drinking may have been in your toilet not that long ago!
S02:E212 - Sports
Harrison takes an in-depth look at sports – from the precise designs of the various balls, to the specialty clothing, to the importance of practice. There’s a lot of science in sports; Harrison finds out how even cheering for your favourite team is good for you!
