🧠 10 Foods to Improve Your Brain Health... We read about ten specific foods for brain health and made sure to incorporate several of them into our lunches throughout this unit.
🧠 Baby Brains... A just-for-fun picture book about the (fictional) world's smartest baby.
🧠 Brain model... We used gluten free Play Doh instead of fondant, still awesome!
🧠 Indescribable (and How Great is Our God)... We love these science devotionals and specifically sought out brain-themed pages. There weren't many but that's okay!
🧠 My Brain Won't Float Away... This fun picture book is a really well-done explanation of hydrocephalus just for kids!
🧠 My First Book About the Brain... This book is also a coloring book. We would read a page and then they'd color it, and now they love that we have a book they colored themselves!
🧠 Professor Noggin's The Human Body... This is not brain specific but we love this human body trivia game for all human body systems!
🧠 Sid the Science Kid: Now That's Using Your Brain... We love Sid and this is a good one. A has outgrown Sid but he humored me.
🧠 Your Fantastic Elastic Brain... A great picture book explaining how to strengthen our brains through learning new things!
I also have lots of fun grown-up recommendations for you! It turns out I love this subject.
🧠 The Aging Brain... Protecting your brain from Alzheimer's, Demetia, and general brain-specific aging concerns. Fascinating stuff!
🧠 Anxiety is Really Strange and Trauma is Really Strange... These are like comic books explaining anxiety and Trauma in easy-to-understand language. So helpful!
🧠 Brain Rules... (I also loved Brain Rules for Baby when I was pregnant with Baby A!) I really enjoyed both of these and Ryan and I enjoyed watching the accompanying Brain Rules DVD with A, although we did skip a section about reproductive instincts.
🧠 Unreasonable Hope... this fantastic Christian Memoir is written by the father of a little girl named Georgia who is born with the rare anomaly called Smooth brain. Our brains are wrinkled little organs but George's does not contain those oh so important wrinkles. I learned a lot about this subject but even more about faith. One of my favorites!
🧠 Waking the Tiger... this one also specifically deals with trauma and Trauma recovery. I found it so fascinating and helpful.
