Session 1: Questions about the Human Brain

In our first session, after the Introduction, The participants were divided in two groups of seven kids in each group. We had to make a list of questions about our brain. Both groups, mostly eight-fifteen years of age, had lots of questions to share and here they are:
  • What is the weight of our brain?

  1. Dear members! Thinkers’ club is an excellent idea. You people are lucky that you’re a part of it. I wish I could too. But I’m over aged. Can’t you reconsider the age limit? Just kidding! Some questions are really very interesting & made me laugh e.g Can a person become mad after thinking a lot? Hahaha! I think he is not but the people around will think him mad. Waiting for the next post.
