About this listen

Why do we get goosebumps when we’re cold, scared, or moved by music? In this Squiz Kids Science Short, Christie explains what’s really happening under your skin, why those tiny bumps helped our ancestors survive, and why they’re called goosebumps in the first place. It’s a small reaction with a very big backstory.
