I know all my friends boys love this show, and that includes my 7 year old, but even my 5 year old daugther loves it too. It's funky and educational. We as Moms may be a little grossed out, but kids and Dads will love it! Good "clean" fun and educational.

What Parents Need to Know
About Grossology
Parents need to know that this animated series -- based on a series of books by the same name -- centers on biological and health topics that most adults try to avoid like, well, the plague. The two main characters use their knowledge of science to battle vile villains whose weapons include mutant lice, slime molds, and collections of the world's foulest smells. Very little is sacred in the way of body-related issues, and functions like nasal drainage, ear wax, and, yes, even poop, are thoroughly dissected within the storyline. While it's likely to send parents scattering, kids (especially boys) will be captivated, and they'll learn a lot of fun facts about science along the way.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about science. Kids, what science topics are you interested in? How do scientists use their knowledge to improve people's lives? What scientific advances do you think are important? Parents can also discuss personal health. What are some of the ways you keep your body healthy? How do diet and exercise contribute to health? Viewers who've read the books can talk about the similarities and differences between them and the series.
