Animals smell things with their noses, just like we do! 🐾 But some animals have super-smelling powers! 🦨
Dogs, for example, have wet noses that help them catch smells better. They can even smell things we can't! 🐶
Cats use their whiskers to help them smell too! 🐱 Isn't that cool?
Protein is like tiny building blocks for your body! 🏗️ It helps you grow big and strong, just like how blocks build a tall tower. 🏰
When you eat foods like chicken, eggs, or beans, your body uses protein to make your muscles, hair, and even your nails! 💪
So, eating protein helps you run, jump, and play all day long! 🌟
Milk is like a magic drink that helps you grow big and strong! 🦸♂️ It has something called calcium, which makes your bones and teeth super strong. 🦷💪
It also has vitamins that keep you healthy and give you energy to play all day! 🌟
Some animals have shells to keep them safe, just like a superhero's armor! 🦸♂️🐢 Shells protect them from bigger animals who might want to eat them. They can also hide inside their shells when they feel scared.
For example, turtles carry their homes on their backs! 🏠🐢 Isn't that cool?
Trees grow tall like magic! 🌱 They start as tiny seeds and drink water from the ground. The sun ☀️ helps them grow by giving them energy. Their roots hold them tight, and their trunks get taller and taller each year!
Just like you grow bigger when you eat healthy food, trees grow when they get sunlight, water, and nutrients from the soil.
Our bodies make energy from the food we eat! 🍎🥕 Just like a car needs fuel to move, our bodies need food to run, jump, and play. When we eat, our tummy breaks the food into tiny pieces, and our body uses these pieces to make energy. This energy helps us stay active and happy! 🌟
Remember to eat healthy foods like fruits, vegetables, and grains to keep your energy high! 🥦🍌
When you get a cut, a bandage is like a little helper 🩹! It covers the cut to keep it clean and safe from dirt and germs. This way, your body can focus on fixing the cut all by itself! 🌟
Bandages also stop the ouchie from getting bumped, so it doesn’t hurt as much. Plus, they come in fun colors and shapes! 🎨
When you feel cold or scared, tiny bumps pop up on your skin! 🥶 They look like the skin of a plucked chicken, so we call them "goosebumps."
Your body does this to try to keep you warm or to make you look bigger if you're scared—just like animals do! 🐾
People have different skin colors because of something called melanin 🌈. Melanin is like a special paint inside our skin that makes it light or dark. Some people have more melanin, so their skin is darker. Others have less, so their skin is lighter. It's like how some flowers are red and others are yellow—everyone is beautiful in their own way! 😊
Our skin color also helps protect us from the sun ☀️. Darker skin keeps us safer in very sunny places, while lighter skin helps us get more sunshine in places where it's not so sunny.
Animals are super smart! 🦊 They change their bodies or behavior to live better in their homes. For example, polar bears have thick fur to stay warm in the snow, and chameleons change colors to hide from enemies! 🦎
Some birds fly south when it gets cold, and fish have fins to swim fast. Nature helps animals find clever ways to survive! 🌿
