  • Refugees - From the Vault

    Refugees - From the Vault
    Mar 21 2026
    What does it mean to leave your home and start again somewhere new? In this From the Vault episode, we revisit our Squiz Kids Shortcut to Refugees — exploring who refugees are, why people are forced to flee their countries, and where many of the world’s refugees come from today. Released during Harmony Week, this episode is a reminder of the importance of kindness, inclusion, and understanding — and the strength people carry with them when they begin a new chapter in a new place.

  • Will humans ever evolve into something else? Science Short

    Will humans ever evolve into something else? Science Short
    Mar 20 2026
    What will humans look like in the future… and could we ever evolve into something completely different? In this Squiz Kids Science Short, we explore how evolution works, how humans are still changing today, and why something as simple as drinking milk can tell a surprising story about our past. It’s a fascinating mix of science, history, and big questions… including whether the future of humans will be shaped by nature, technology — or us.
