Students at Noble Prentis Elementary recently learned how powerful their brains are thanks to a visit from The Research Foundation's injury prevention program, ThinkFirst Greater Kansas City. 🧠✨

This presentation took place during and allowed students to explore how the brain controls important functions like memory, balance, hearing, and sensation. They also talked about smart choices that help protect the brain and prevent injuries, from wearing helmets to making safe decisions every day.

Our injury prevention programs like ThinkFirst empower kids with knowledge that can help keep them safe for a lifetime. We love seeing these curious minds engaged, asking questions, and learning how to take care of one of their most important organs! 🙋‍♀️🙋‍♂️
