Science KS2 - Operation Ouch! It Takes Guts

Welcome to the human digestive system!

Join Dr Chris, Dr Xand and Dr Ronx as you travel through the digestive systems from the mouth … to the bum! Discover how the human body munches, crunches and breaks down the food that we eat so that it can be turned into energy. Explore saliva in the mouth, peristalsis in the oesophagus and acid in the stomach, making sure you earn rewards to upgrade the pod. But watch out - you’ll also need to help guide the pod past lots of burps, farts and bad bacteria along the way!

New bonus levels!

Target plaque in the mouth, race down the small intestines and navigate around the poo in the large intestines in Mr Grumbles' new challenges!
