ENTER TO WIN – FILL OUT THE FORM BELOW
Take on a journey with Epilepsy Web For Kids (this website) and discover great things about NEURONS, the great cells in our brains! Everyday, during the month of October 2024 we post one short video clip to learn a bit more about neurons. Most of the information we find comes from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders at this link. We break down the information in easy chunks. We invite all kids who visit our page, to enter a form on this page (see on the right side) with their names, age, an email address and to tell us one thing they learned about neurons during the month of October. We will draw a special winner on October 31. Entries are free and you can enter as many times and with as many learnings as you wish.
