Geysers and Hot Springs for Kids | Learn all about this amazing natural phenomenon
What is the difference between a geyser and a hot spring? In this video for kids, you’ll learn the answer to that question. In fact, you will realize that all geysers are hot springs, but not all hot springs are geysers. Places where groundwater creates a pool of water are springs. And hot springs are pockets of water that are hotter than the surrounding ground and air temperatures.
The water in a hot spring is usually higher than 98°F when it comes out of the ground. Some hot springs, also called geothermal or thermal springs, turn into geysers. When a hot spring becomes pressurized and erupts, it becomes a geyser. Geysers specifically shoot water and steam high into the air, unlike normal hot springs. The word geyser comes from the Icelandic word that means to gush.
Keep watching to follow along with a fun experiment to see how geysers work. You can pause the video when prompted to make sure you gather all the necessary supplies (and people). Hope you enjoy!
