| We recently learned of an exciting neuroscience site for kids. NeuroKids Foundation is the brain child of Shennendoah (age 12) and Bo Erik (age 9) Hollsten. They created the foundation to teach kids about the brain. They design and run the web site, which includes interviews with neuroscientists, podcasts and blogs. Their interviews include one with Steven Pinker, the author of The Blank Slate, The Language Instinct, and How the Mind Works. We’re really impressed with Shennendoah and Bo Erik’s excitement and knowledge about the brain. When we first checked out their site, we thought they must be adults, and were blown away to learn they were 9 and 12 years old. Check them out at www.neurokids.org We think you’ll enjoy the enthusiasm and knowledge they bring to learning about the brain. This is what we’re dedicated to at Morphonix. Games like Neuromatrix, are awakening children to the miracle and wonder of their own growing brains, inspiring them to take good care of their brains, and nourishing their curiosity about the realm of biology as a whole. We’re inspired by kids like Shennendoah and Bo Erik who are using their creativity to inspire kids everywhere. |
