For almost twenty years Ive gone to
an ice fishing camp every winter season with the exact same group of men (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 explanation for my four-year-old was “its a noise that some individuals make when theyre sleeping.” A better explanation is discovered in a TED-Ed lesson entitled
Why Do Some People Snore So Loudly?.

Why Do Some People Snore So Loudly? discusses what sleep apnea is, what triggers it, why it triggers snoring, and some ways to treat sleep apnea. See the full video lesson here and find the accompanying conversation questions here..
