The Brain


                  The Brain  
                                                                    The brain is the most important piece of your body. It does everything from moving your body to digestion.
But what you probably didn’t know is that it can slow time
But that’s not what I’m talking about I'm talking about the main part of the brain such as the cerebrum or the cerebellum.


Let me start with the biggest, which would be the cerebrum it takes up 85% of the brain’s weight.
What it does is it controls a lot of things like imagination, your senses (touch, smell, sight and hearing) and controls your thinking.


Ok, now let’s talk about the cerebellum, also known as the small brain because it only takes up 8% of the brain but its very powerful and what it does is control motion, balance, learning new things and coordination.   


And last but not least is the brain stem, which controls very important things such as breathing, digestion and controls automatic things like walking or breathing.


And that’s it but for more information go to kidshealth.org
