Can you think of any benefits
of having eye lashes?
• Eyelashes help to protect your eyes. (There are many particles in the air,
like dust and sand, which can get into your eyes and harm them). 

• Eyelashes also help to keep moisture,  sweat or rain, out of your eyes. (Their

curved shape and the way they are positioned allow them to
direct moisture away from your eyes).

• Your eyelashes help to tell your eyelids when they need to shut

to protect the eyes.

• Eyelashes also help to shield your eyes from the bright light of the sun

• Eyelashes have special powers to grant wishes.
