Taste and Smell Poster

Product Description

The Blueprint for Health series of charts illustrated by Kate Sweeney are designed to make human anatomy come alive for kids. Colorful, clear pictures help to explain concepts. Examples and activities make learning and understanding fun and easy.

Your Taste and Smell (from the Blueprint for Health charts series) is an ideal tool for educating pediatric patients and school aged kids. Your Taste and Smell illustrates step by step processes for how we smell and taste, from contact with the nose or tongue to the interaction with the brain. Colorful, anatomically correct illustrations show the anatomy of a "sniff" and show the tongue up close with its bumps and buds. The chart describes fun things to do at home or in the classroom to illustrate taste and smell, includes fun facts ("Spicy things such as chili peppers excite pain receptors and taste receptors in your mouth."), and includes interesting facts on the types of tongues and smelling mechanisms of several animals.
