| All About Bones & Muscles |
|  |
| |
 Kids' bodies always seem to be in motion! But movement (running, jumping, standing, sitting and even smiling) would not be possible without bones and muscles. All About Bones & Muscles gives young students a close-up look at these two key systems of the human body. First, they'll learn that bones and muscles are alive! Then, they will discover that bones give our bodies shape, structure and protection, while also performing the important job of making our blood! Muscles attached to bones are what give us the ability to move in so many ways, as a young gymnast demonstrates. Viewers will also learn about cartilage, ligaments and tendons, as well as ways of caring for our bones and muscles. Includes a fun activity in which kids create a simple model of the body and try to use what they've learned to locate joints.
