Your body is constantly fighting germs, even when you aren't sick? Now you know! Find out more about germs and how to stay healthy in this delightful presentation based on his new book Bill Nye the Science Guy's Great Big Book of Tiny Germs, as well as other really cool science stuff from Nye Labs. Bring the kids, and the kids' friends, for an afternoon of science and a blast of fun.
