What is a Cell?

A cell is like a tiny building block that makes up all living things! Just like a toy house is built from small blocks, our bodies are built from cells.

Where Can We Find Cells?

Every living creature, like you, a puppy, or a flower, is made of cells. If you look at the skin on your hand, that's made of lots of cells working together.

What Do Cells Do?

Cells have special jobs. Some help us grow, some give us energy, and some help heal us when we get hurt. They are very important!

Fun Fact!

If you could see a cell, it would look like a small jelly bean! They are so tiny that we need a microscope to see them.

Remember!

So, next time you think about living things, remember that they are all made of tiny cells - just like you!
