FUN FACT
YAWNING FOR AIR
Yawning when you're tired is actually a wake-up call for the brain. Your brain needs lots of oxygen, which is carried in your bloodstream to all parts of your body. When you're tired, your heart pumps more slowly. This means oxygen gets to your brain slowly. When you yawn, your brain gets the oxygen a lot faster. That makes your brain happy!

Invent Your Own Animals
Look through some old magazines to see how many animal pictures you can find. Cut out the legs of a dog, the ears of a cat, the face of a chicken, the body of a giraffe, or whatever parts you want from the other animals that you see. Make your own combinations of the cutouts, and come up with as many “new” animals as you can. Then give them all funny names, like “dogachickiraffe”! Now make up a story about where these types of creatures can be found, what they like to eat, and what strange habits they have!
