Curious Minds

"Ever had to sit next to someone who was continually blowing their nose?? Pretty gross, huh? The science behind it is actually an important part of how your body works. Mucus (which generally refers to the secretions coming from the nasal passage) and phlegm (which generally refers to secretions found in the lungs) are actually key ways in which the body protects itself from germs. Mucus traps dust and germs and prevents them from entering the body, and phlegm protects the lungs from any dust and bacteria that may be entering the body through normal breathing! They both serve to keep tissues from drying out as well (hence why nasal mucus is produced continually). Now you and your child can concoct some slimy snot and learn about how your body works at the same time! Or play a trick on someone and put on a slimy phony nose! This is an innovative kit that will offer you and your children a chance to share and explore this interesting facet of the human body!
