Why do we need sleep? Why should we wash our hands? What does exercise do inside the body?
You have reminded your child to sleep, drink water or wash their hands, and then comes the question: why? You want to offer more than “because I said so”, but everyday life does not always leave time for a thoughtful explanation. Understanding the reasons behind a habit can turn a reminder into a conversation.
You don’t need to know every answer to help your child discover something wonderful.
Join Ayden and Aysha as they discover the science behind everyday health habits and the familiar puzzles of growing bodies. With 60 illustrated lessons, each beginning with a question, Health and Body Functions gives curious children aged 6 to 11 clear explanations and surprising Fun Facts about sleep, food, water, exercise, hygiene and everyday body functions, and gives parents somewhere to begin.
Read one question together. Follow the conversation wherever it leads. Younger children can enjoy listening and asking more questions; confident readers can explore for themselves.
With a lesson index and four vocabulary pages, it’s easy to return to a favourite discovery or find the words for a new one.
Book 19 of 25 in the Ayden and Aysha Discover the World collection, created by Monalisa.
Give them a reason to understand, and give yourself another way to explain.
