Smelling

key notes:

What Is Smelling?

• Smelling is one of our five senses. It helps us detect different odors or scents around us.

How We Smell:

• We use our nose to smell. Inside the nose, there are special cells that can detect smells.

Examples of Smells:

• Pleasant Smells: Flowers, fresh cookies, or a new book.
• Unpleasant Smells: Garbage, dirty socks, or spoiled food.

Why Smelling Is Important:

• Smelling helps us enjoy our food by detecting flavors.
• It helps us stay safe by noticing things that might be dangerous (like smoke from a fire).

Smelling and Emotions:

• Smells can make us feel happy or sad. For example, the smell of a favorite food can make us feel excited.

Safety Note:

• Not all smells are safe. If something smells bad or strange, it’s important to tell an adult.
