since the living things on earth get all the light and warmth from the sun we can say that our whole life is shaped by it changing seasons day and night warm and cold climates all depend on the sun let's try to make sense of it so what are day and night the day lasts from the moment the sun rises until the moment it goes down and nighttime on the opposite is from sunset until sunrise the way the sun appears in the sky and disappears from it is connected to the revolution of the earth around the sun and to the earth's rotation around its own axis the earth spins as it moves in space it somewhat reminds us of children's game called spinning top because of its rotation the earth turns one half or the other towards the sun on the side that faces the sun it's daytime and on the opposite side that's not lit by the sun it's nighttime the change of seasons also depends on the earth's position relative to the sun in the part of the earth where the air and surface are well lit and warmed by the sun it's summer and in the part where the sun's rays just skim the surface it's winter there are two regions on the earth that can never be properly warmed by the sun they are the north and south poles they are always covered in ice very few plants and animals live there not many living things can survive in such cold climates at the same time on the equator which goes around the middle of our planet it's always summer this part of the earth is well warmed by the sun and the times of year only differ in the amount of rainfall and the direction of winds even the calendar we use is related to the sun what we call year is the time in which the earth makes one revolution around our star the beautiful star called the sun our daily life and our holidays depend on it as well as all life on the planet earth play with me in the kids academy app and learn about math reading writing and more scan the qr code or use the link in the description let's have fun
