Welcome to Human Body Learning!

Have you ever wondered…

  • Why did my heartbeat speed up?
  • How do germs sneak into the body?
  • What’s so special about my brain?
  • When can I stop taking this medicine?
  • Since my hands don’t look dirty, do I really have to wash them?

Good news! These are excellent questions to explore here.

Being curious about your body is normal and healthy.

Questions are one of the most important parts of learning. And learning about your body is one of the best ways to be safe and strong.

The tricky thing is that a lot of kids believe that science is hard to memorize. Teachers have to search for books, worksheets, and videos. Plus, many parents aren’t sure how to explain certain topics at home. Meanwhile, kids often wish, “If only I had a grown-up to talk to about this stuff.” The struggle is real.

Meet the Doctor

Hi! I’m Dr. Betty Choi, and I’m so glad you’re here. I’m a pediatrician passionate about making learning relevant, accessible, and memorable. Also, I’m a mom of two wonderful children, my teammates here at Human Body Learning!

I’ll never forget the start of the pandemic when people everywhere were thrown into homeschooling while worrying about their health. At that time, I realized that hands-on human body resources for young learners were pretty sparse. This inspired me to create an anatomy resource for my children, their friends, and all the great kids out there.

My children’s anatomy book, Human Body Learning Lab, is available in bookstores everywhere. This website gives a deeper dive into each organ system with extra activities and resources!

I hope your children and students will fall in love with reading, experimenting, and wondering so that every “Why” can turn into a “Whoa”!

I’m truly honored to share this learning journey with you.
