Happy Equinox! | Science for Kids

The video explains the concept of equinox, a time when day and night are nearly equal. It describes how Earth's movement and axis tilt cause seasons. The spring equinox marks the transition from winter to spring, while the autumn equinox signals the shift from summer to autumn.
