Earthquakes and Tsunami's go hand in hand, which is why I have combined the two topics into one post. Below you will find resources to teach your student about these two topics, starting with a short playlist of videos found on Youtube. As always I would suggest that the parent watches the videos ahead of time so that they can prepare for any questions their child will have when watching them.

Science - Volcanoes
Volcanoes are on of those wonders of nature to me, and have been since I first learned about them as a child. Below are some resources and ideas to get your children interested in the science of Geomorphology and Volcanism.
Volcano Playlist (below): A note to parents: I would watch the videos in the playlist below ahead of time so that you can anticipate some of your child's questions ahead of time and do some research to answer those questions. Also be aware that these are not Christian videos and cover subjects such as plate techtonics (ex. pangea) as well as say things like "fifty billion years ago." Another great time to cover Genesis with your child and explain the difference between biblical views and world views in common science.
