Fabulous Food Chains: Crash Course Kids #7.1

Everyone eats, right? But how does that food get the energy to power you? In this episode of Crash Course Kids, Sabrina talks about the way energy moves, or flows, through an ecosystem and how that movement forms Food Chains!

This first series is based on 5th-grade science. We're super excited and hope you enjoy Crash Course Kids!
