Your task
Sort each card.
- Your eyes collect light; your brain builds the picture — and sometimes it guesses.
- A fictional journey, not medical advice. If you feel unwell, talk to a trusted adult or a health professional (Portugal: SNS 24 — 808 24 24 24; emergency: 112).
- Every body is different and every body is valid. Nothing about you or your health is collected.
Score
- Body knowledge — You understood how this part of the body works.
- Healthy habits — You chose habits that help your body.
- Safe & ask for help — You stayed safe and knew when to ask a trusted adult.
Real science
Each eye has a blind spot where the optic nerve leaves it; your brain fills in the gap so you don't notice.
Senses Observatory
A fictional journey, not medical advice — we never diagnose. Pain, injuries or worries: talk to a trusted adult (SNS 24: 808 24 24 24; emergency 112; SOS Criança 116 111). Nothing about you or your health is collected; progress stays on this device.
