Morning Starters: Summer 1 - Four Seasons
Did You Know?
The seasons happen because Earth is tilted on its axis as it orbits the Sun. In winter, sunlight reaches us at an angle, spreading out its warmth, making days colder and shorter. Meanwhile, Australians enjoy sunny summer days when their part of the world tilts toward the Sun. This clever system gives us the variety of seasons, from freezing frosts to marvellous, sunny heatwaves.
