The Human Body

Your body is amazing! 🧍 It has many parts working together every single day. Each part has a special job. Let's find out what some of those jobs are!

You have 206 bones inside you! 🦴 Together they make your skeleton. Your skeleton holds your body up so you can stand, sit, and move around.

Muscles are attached to your bones. 💪 When a muscle pulls, your bones move. That is how you wave, jump, and kick a ball. You have over 600 muscles!

Your heart is a muscle too. ❤️ It beats over and over all day and all night. Every beat pumps blood around your whole body. Blood carries food and air to every part.

When you breathe in, air goes into your lungs. 🫁 Your lungs take a gas called oxygen out of the air. Your body needs oxygen to stay alive and have energy.

Your brain is the boss of your body. 🧠 It sends messages to every part of you. Your brain helps you think, feel, remember, and move. It never stops working!

Your stomach helps you get energy from food. 🍎 When you eat, your stomach breaks food into tiny pieces. Then your body uses those pieces to grow and stay strong.
