Exploring Types of Energy for Kids

The video introduces the concept of energy, focusing on wind energy. It explains how wind energy is an invisible force that can perform work, such as moving objects or generating electricity. The video includes a practical experiment demonstrating wind energy's ability to move various objects based on their weight. It also discusses how wind turbines convert wind energy into electricity for household use. The video concludes with a call to action to subscribe for more educational content.
