Log on to Health For Kids for a fun and interactive way to learn all about your health and also find out what causes ill-health
Did you know that germs from your sneeze can travel up to 100 miles an hour! Yes, that’s how fast it can travel; as fast as a rocket! Learn all about it on Health For Kids.
This little fun information comes from www.healthforkids.co.uk/ which tells you to ‘Blast off to Planet X and learn more about avoiding illness.’ The website invites you to take a trip and explore the fascinating world of Health for Kids.
To get the most out of this website Health For Kids , there is a menu – ‘Using this Site’- which tells you exactly how to go about it. It will help children to think about how they can stay healthy and look after their health. Health experts have written the content in a way they hope children will find interesting! The website also features three entertaining games (Knight Nurse, Poop Shooter, Lanterns in the Wind) to make learning about health even more fun. Besides, key health topics are presented through four themed worlds: ‘Jungle World’ – Staying Healthy, ‘Water World’ – Feelings, ‘Sci-Fi World’ – Illness, ‘Fantasy World’ – Getting Help. Each ‘world’ presents health advice through fun facts, quizzes, games or film.
While the worlds have hyperlinks to lead you directly to the chosen world, there are many other ways you can find out the information you need on Health For Kids. You could spin the wheel on the homepage and go to pages that interest you from this or click on the navigation bar at the top of the homepage to see what topics are covered in each world. Each page has further activities to help you learn more and friendly characters are placed around to help you along the way.
