What is Voice travels up through your throat?

Voice travels up through your throat when you talk, it’s like sound waves going on a little journey inside your body.

Imagine you're pushing bubbles from the bottom of a bubble bath to the top. That's kind of what happens in your throat. When you speak, your vocal cords (two little rubbery bands in your voice box) vibrate, like when you shake a bell, and that makes sound. The sound then travels up through your throat, like water moving up a straw.

Your mouth and nose help shape the sound, just like how a funnel helps direct water from one place to another. You can make different sounds by changing your mouth shape, like when you say “ah” or “oh,” which are two of the simplest ways to talk.

When you laugh or shout, it’s like pushing more bubbles up at once, bigger and faster. That's why your voice can be loud or soft, depending on how much you push!

So next time you talk, think about those sound waves traveling from your voice box all the way out through your mouth, just like a little bubble bath party inside you! Voice travels up through your throat when you talk, it’s like sound waves going on a little journey inside your body.
