Australian Geographic Biology Lab: Discover the Science of Living Things

What can your own cheek cells reveal? How does a lung work? The Australian Geographic Biology Lab brings these questions to the experiment table with hands-on activities that explore the biology inside your body. Extract real DNA from your cheek cells, investigate how vinegar changes a bone and build a working model lung, discovering the science behind each result as you go.

What's Inside

A hands-on biology lab kit with easy-to-follow instructions and safety guidance, featuring activities to:

• Extract real DNA from your own cheek cells.
• Turn a solid bone rubbery using vinegar.
• Build a working model lung.
• Explore enzymes, acids and bases.

Why Kids (and Parents) Love It

• Science gets personal: exploring their own cheek cells gives children a direct connection to what they are learning.
• Results worth talking about: a rubbery bone and a working lung model give abstract ideas a practical starting point.
• Questions lead the way: each activity is an opportunity to predict, observe and discuss what happens.
• A change from reading about science: hands-on experiments turn biology into something children can investigate for themselves.
