What’s smaller than small and busier than busy? It’s the cell—the tiny building block of every living thing! In this episode, Audra and her 8-year-old cohost Sloane explore what cells are, where we find them, and why they’re so important. Using fun examples (and a few Lego bricks), they zoom in layer by layer—from body systems to organs to tissues—all the way down to the microscopic world inside every cell. Along the way, they meet three superstar organelles:

• 🧠 Nucleus – the control center that holds DNA, the instructions for building you
• ⚡ Mitochondria – the “powerhouse” that turns food and oxygen into energy (ATP!)
• 🏭 Ribosome – the protein factory that makes all the proteins which help your body grow, heal, and work properly

By the end, kids will understand how every breath, bite, and heartbeat depends on the work of trillions of cells—all working together like a team of tiny builders inside us.
