What are the senses?

Your senses.

Touch. Your skin gives you a sense of touch. So even when you're not looking, you can tell if something is soft and warm, or smooth and cold. In fact, your skin is so sensitive, it can automatically help you warm up. Or cool down. What will your skin feel today?

Sight. Your eyes are specially designed to see what's around you. They make sure you can see things that are very close, and far away. But they need plenty of light to do it. Hey! And sometimes they need a little extra help to make the picture even clearer. What will your eyes see today?

Smell. Your nose is specially designed to detect smells. It can tell the difference between nice smells, yum, and nasty ones, eww. What will your nose smell today?

Hearing. Your ears are specially designed to hear what's going on around you. Even when you're hearing lots of things at once, your brain is very good at recognising different sounds. Your ears can hear sounds that are very quiet and they're always working. Even when you're asleep. Good morning. MORNING! What will your ears hear today?

Taste. Your mouth and tongue, give you your sense of taste. So you can instantly tell what tastes bitter from what’s sweet. Everybody knows the tastes they like, and the ones they don't. But flavours can be combined in different ways to create new and surprising tastes. What will your mouth taste today?
