Ever wondered what your belly button actually does? (Spoiler alert: not much!) But don’t worry — that tiny spot on your tummy used to be one of the most important parts of your body when you were a baby growing inside your mom!
In this episode, Audra — a former teacher, emergency room PA, and mom of four curious kids — takes listeners back to before they were even born to explain how the umbilical cord and placenta helped them eat, breathe, and grow long before their actual birth day.
Kids will learn:
🩸 How oxygen and nutrients travel from mom to baby
🎈 What the placenta and umbilical cord do
👶 Why the belly button is actually a scar
🤯 How your blood and your mom’s blood never actually mix!
This “Questions from Listeners” episode is perfect for curious minds who love learning how their bodies work — even before they were born!
