Brain Cell (Neuron) Soft Toy - Giant Microbes

Play, Laugh and Learn with Giant Microbes

A cute, cuddly buddy and an educational aid all in one!  Scientifically accurate, this sweet neuron comes with a swing tag with information about the nervous system.

The little grey cells that make up your mind are primarily neurons. You have approximately 100 billion of them in your head!

The typical neuron is connected to thousands of others forming an inconceivably dense signal-processing network. With over a 1,000 trillion connections, or synapses, in your brain, there are more transmission-pathways in your head than there are atoms in the universe. But before you let that go to your head, think about this: the number of synapses peaks in early childhood, so the average three-year-old has ten times as many as the average adult!
