Good morning and welcome to Kid News. I'm Kim. Today is Friday, March 14th, 2025, and we begin with

Even NASA only uses the first 15 digits

deals, especially at pizza shops.

For 20 years, students at an Australian high school have unknowingly been walking by a prehistoric treasure.

A massive beige rock in the school's foyer was thought to have been covered in chicken footprints.
