Our body has five special tools called senses that help us understand the world. We use our eyes to see colors, shapes, and things around us. Our ears help us hear sounds, like music or a bird singing. With our nose, we can smell flowers or yummy food. Our tongue helps us taste sweet, salty, sour, and bitter foods. And with our skin, we can touch and feel if something is soft, rough, hot, or cold. Each sense sends messages to our brain, which helps us know what’s happening. Together, our senses keep us safe, happy, and curious about the world!
