## Resource

Every night, Daniel asks his mom a question. Why do we call money "bucks"? Why do we get dizzy when we spin? Why do we knock on wood? The answers are always surprising, and a lot more interesting than you'd expect. Smile with Daniel is a short podcast for curious kids and the adults who love them. Real questions. Real answers. No dumbing it down. New episodes every week. Find us @smilewithDaniel everywhere.
