Welcome to Human Body Learning!
Being curious about your body is normal and healthy. Have you ever wondered…
- Why did my heartbeat speed up?
- How do germs sneak into the body?
- What Does the Color of Your Pee Mean?
- When do I need to see a doctor?
- If my hands don’t look dirty, do I really have to wash them?
These are important questions! Learning about your body is one of the best ways to be safe and strong. If you want to learn, you have to ask questions. And you’ve come to the right place to explore great science questions.
Human Body Learning Plan for Kids, Parents, and Teachers
Did you know that interest acts like a highlighter pen for your memory? Science sticks better when facts are fun and fascinating. Whether you’re learning at home or school, here’s what we recommend at Human Body Learning:
Children should explore the website together with caregivers and teachers. Each article can be a great conversation starter for families and schools. Together, let’s celebrate those “Aha!” moments!
Meet the Doctor and Founder
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! If you’re a fan of comic books, check out my other book, Ask the Doctor: Real Answers to 60 of Your Weirdest, Wackiest Health Questions.
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.
