May Your Ears Hang Low

May Your Ears Hang Low

Did you know that your ears and nose "grow" your whole life? If you don't believe it, just check out your grandpa's nose next to your own. Inside your ears and nose is a rubbery material called cartilage. It's the same stuff a shark's skeleton is made of! Cartilage doesn't actually grow, but gravity pulls down on it your whole life. So over the years, your ears and nose sag more and more. Good thing we can't live for 300 years, or we'd be tripping over our noses.

Read the story. Talk through the numbers. Kids do best when you do the math together!
