The more fun you make education, the easier it is to teach.  Recently I was sent the first release in the  Human Body Detectives series to try out with the girls.  I knew right away that this would be a great addition to our health curriculum selection for this year.

The “The Lucky Escape” is about Merrin and Pearl and how they enter different systems to solve a health mystery. Through these exciting stories, kids learn about the body and how foods best fuel them. A workbook is also provided that reinforces what kids have learned. This is a perfect addition to the home education of children, or as a supplement to public education.

Lauren and Emma really liked this. Lauren said her favorite part was about the mom rubbing the baby and bubbles popping and making “fart sounds“.  She thought this was very funny.  After the girls used the Human Body Detectives we were eating lunch and they started talking about things they learned, all on their own.  I didn’t have to prod them for info, they had fun with it and wanted to tell me all about it! Since it was fun, the information has been retained!

Written by, Dr. Heather Manley. Dr. Manley is a Hawaiian Naturopathic Physician.  This is the first in the Human Body Detectives series.  Her second book in the series will be out in October, “The Battle with the Bugs”. This one is about the immune system.  Other titles to be released are: adventures through the circulatory, nervous, and muscular systems.  Dr. Heather Manley would also like you to know that she will be offering the book to be used as a school fundraiser.  You can contact her through her website for more info on this.

The website is jam packed with info, even fun recipes to try!
