Hi my chickpea,
I hope you’re ready for a special journey today—one where we explore the amazing world of genes and genomes together. I want to share with you the wonders of how our bodies work, and why you’re so unique and special.
Imagine, that inside every cell of your body, there are tiny instruction books called genes. These genes are like the blueprint for who you are—they tell your body how to grow, what color your eyes will be, and even how fast you can run! Just like how we follow instructions to build LEGO towers, your body follows instructions from your genes to grow and thrive.
Now, picture your entire body as a treasure chest filled with these special instruction books. This treasure chest is your genome. It holds all the genes that make you unique and wonderful. It’s like having your own personal library, filled with stories about who you are and where you come from.
Think of your body as a team of superheroes, with each gene playing a special role. When your body needs to do something amazing, like heal a scrape or learn something new, it looks up the instructions in your genome and gathers the right genes to help out. It’s like your body has its own special team of helpers, all working together to make sure you’re happy and healthy.
Did you know, that you got your genes from me and Mom? That’s right! We passed down our special traits to you, like how you have my love for adventure and Mom’s eyes. Your genome holds our family story, connecting you to generations of loved ones who came before you.
So, are you excited to learn more about genes and genomes? They’re like the magical keys that unlock the mysteries of who you are and who you’ll become. As we explore together, I want you to know that I’ll always be here for you, cheering you on every step of the way.
With love and excitement,
Your appa
