What Is the Brain?
Your brain is a super-powered organ inside your head. It’s soft, squishy, and about the size of two fists. But don’t be fooled — it’s the most powerful computer in the world! Your brain helps you think, feel, move, remember, and even dream.
Where Is the Brain?
The brain is safely tucked inside your skull. It’s connected to your body through the spinal cord, which sends messages to and from the brain like a highway of nerves.
What Does the Brain Do?
Your brain is always busy! Here are just a few jobs it does:
- Thinking: Solves puzzles, does maths, and helps you learn.
- Feeling: Lets you feel happy, sad, scared, or excited.
- Moving: Tells your muscles when to run, jump, or smile.
- Sensing: Helps you see, hear, taste, touch, and smell.
Parts of the Brain
Your brain has different parts, and each one has a special job:
- Cerebrum: The biggest part! It controls thinking, speaking, and memory.
- Cerebellum: This small part helps you balance and move smoothly.
- Brainstem: It keeps you alive by controlling breathing, heartbeat, and digestion.
How Do You Keep Your Brain Healthy?
- Eat healthy foods like fruits, veggies, and fish.
- Get plenty of sleep to give your brain a rest.
- Play and exercise to boost brain power.
- Keep learning new things every day!
Now you know how amazing your brain is! It’s your body’s boss and your best helper. Keep it healthy, keep learning, and give it a good night’s sleep. You’re using your brain every day — and it’s brilliant!
