Have you ever noticed how the weather changes throughout the year? These changes happen because of the four seasons: fall, winter, spring, and summer. The seasons change as the Earth travels around the sun.
After spring, the next season is summer. During summer, the weather gets warmer, and we have more hours of sunlight each day. This means the days are longer and hotter. As summer goes on, the weather stays warm until it starts to cool down again as fall approaches.
Summer is a great time to be outside! People love going to the beach, having picnics, and playing sports. It’s a perfect season to enjoy the sunshine and fresh air.
In summer, animals are very busy. They spend more time outside, looking for food and taking care of their babies. Plants also love summer because the warm weather and sunlight help them grow big and strong. Many plants produce fruits during this time, which we can enjoy eating!
As summer ends, the weather starts to cool down, and the days become shorter. This means fall, or autumn, is on its way. Fall brings its own special changes, which you can learn about in our other videos. See you next time!
Weather Diary: Start a weather diary for a week. Each day, draw a picture of the sky and write a few words about the weather. Is it sunny, cloudy, or rainy? Is it hot or warm? At the end of the week, look at your drawings and see if you notice any patterns. Discuss with your family or friends how the weather affects what you do each day.
Plant Growth Experiment: Find a small plant or flower in your garden or a pot. Observe it every day for a week. Measure how tall it grows using a ruler and draw a picture of it each day. Notice how the sunlight and warm weather help it grow. At the end of the week, talk about how the plant changed and what it might need to keep growing strong.
Summer Scavenger Hunt: Go on a scavenger hunt in your backyard or a nearby park. Look for signs of summer, like blooming flowers, insects buzzing, or birds singing. Make a list of what you find and draw pictures of your discoveries. Share your findings with your class or family and discuss why these things are more common in summer.

[Music] Throughout the year, regular changes occur in the weather, including variations in sunlight, temperature, rain, and snowfall. [Music] In one year, there are four seasons: fall, winter, spring, and summer. The seasons change as the Earth moves around the sun. [Music] In the last video, I talked about my favorite season, spring. In this video, we’ll take a quick look at the season that follows: summer.
As the season transitions from spring to summer, the weather continues to get warmer, and the hours of sunlight increase each day. The hottest and longest days of the year occur in summer until they reach a maximum. Towards the end of summer, the weather gradually becomes cooler, and the days shorten.
The warm weather usually means people spend more time outdoors, going to the beach, having picnics, and playing sports. Animals are typically more active in the summertime, spending more time hunting, breeding, and interacting with their environment. The abundance of warmth and sunlight provides ideal conditions for plants to grow and produce fruits.
As fall, or autumn, approaches, the weather gets cooler, and the days get shorter. You can learn more about fall in our related videos. See you next time! [Music] Don’t forget to subscribe!
