Sense of balance

Our sense of balance helps us move around and stay steady. It's like an inner alarm system that tells us when something is wrong so we can fix it. Our body works together to keep us balanced. For example, there are tiny sensors in our ears and eyes that help us know how we're lined up in space. There are also muscles in our legs that help keep us balanced and stable. When our balance is off, we can fix it by using our eyes, legs and the other sensors in our body.
