5 year old: So, all the roots under the trees connect to every tree. But if a tree is in danger, it talks to a not-in-danger tree, & the not-in-danger tree talks to all the other trees.

Me: Where did you learn this?

5 y. o.: I don’t know, I just know. Trees & plants can talk.
Wait, the mystery has been solved! According to the oldest kid, they learned all about the trees from a Magic School Bus episode! Never say television isn’t educational. https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🙃" title="Auf den Kopf gestelltes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Auf den Kopf gestelltes Gesicht"> https://magicschoolbus.fandom.com/wiki/Tim_and_the_Talking_Trees">https://magicschoolbus.fandom.com/wiki/Tim_...
My friends and family on Facebook are awesome and keep posting fascinating articles, so here’s two more links about tree communication!https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🙂" title="Leicht lächelndes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Leicht lächelndes Gesicht"> https://www.newyorker.com/tech/annals-of-technology/the-secrets-of-the-wood-wide-web/amp">https://www.newyorker.com/tech/anna...
