Motor neuron

Do you know what a motor is? It's something that makes things move. Like a car has a motor to make it go.

Your body has something called motor neurons which are like little messengers that tell your muscles what to do. They're like the television remote control for your body.

Your brain sends messages to motor neurons to activate certain muscles. For example, when you want to pick up a toy, your brain sends a message to the motor neurons in your arm to activate the muscles needed to pick up the toy.

Motor neurons are very important because without them, we wouldn't be able to move our bodies. They help us do things like run, jump, and even blink our eyes.

So, think of motor neurons as tiny little messengers that help your body do all the amazing things that it can do!
