Body Walk, a fun and educational activity for children sponsored by the Mississippi Extension Service, was open for kids to venture through Oct. 13-16 at the Lee County Agri-Center's Magnolia Building.
The walk, which is built for children to move through with ease, is split into segments devoted to these parts of the body: brain, mouth, stomach, small intestine, heart, lungs, bones, muscle and skin.
When I arrived, I decided to follow one set of kids - a group from Camille Shumpert's third-grade class at Mooreville Elementary School - the entire way. The kids, Mrs. Shumpert and I had a great time walking and learning from each section. It was quite informative. I appreciate Mrs. Shumpert and her students - Sydney Armstrong, Charlotte Deeters, Farrah Hester, Hanna Donald, Sam Morgan, Trey White, Brady Hood, Kelsey McIntosh and Jahquantee Rogers - for letting me tag along.
