Neuroscience for Kids

This lively, informative Web site entertains kids of all ages. Learn why the statement "We use only 10 percent of our brain" is probably a myth and how that myth may have originated. Try out a recipe for making an edible model of a brain cell. Check out the differences between various animals' brains. Take part in a Web-based scavenger hunt and much more!
