What’s Snoring? – Another Question from my Daughters

For nearly twenty years Ive gone to
an ice fishing camp every winter season with the same group of guys (other than for last winter). A few of them are rather loud snorers. The loud snorers have their own bunk room in the lodge. I was discussing this recently when my child asked, “whats snoring?” My best description for my four-year-old was “its a sound that some people make when theyre sleeping.” A better description is discovered in a TED-Ed lesson titled
Why Do Some People Snore So Loudly?.

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