For almost twenty years Ive gone to
an ice fishing camp every winter season with the exact same group of men (except for last winter season). Some of them are rather loud snorers. The loud snorers have their own bunk space in the lodge. I was talking about this a few days ago when my daughter asked, “whats snoring?” My finest description for my four-year-old was “its a noise that some individuals make when theyre sleeping.” A better explanation is found in a TED-Ed lesson titled
Why Do Some People Snore So Loudly?.

Why Do Some People Snore So Loudly? describes what sleep apnea is, what triggers it, why it causes snoring, and some methods to treat sleep apnea. View the complete video lesson here and find the accompanying conversation questions here..
