Color your hearts out and post your drawings on social media with the hashtag #TEDEdColoringBook, or email them to tededpatreon@ted.com with the subject line #TEDEdColoringBook. 

We might feature your work on our social media pages, in a future TED-Ed video, or even on the office fridge!

This image is from our lesson, Why do we hiccup? by educator John Cameron with animation by Black Powder Design. Did you know that some scientists believe the hiccup is a vestigial relic of the ancient transition from water to land? The neural patterning involved in generating a hiccup is almost identical to that responsible for respiration in amphibians. 

Think about that next time you laugh so hard your drink comes out of your nose! (That's one way to get hiccups).

Drink coming out of my nose sounds unpleasant. Note to self: don't have a drink in my mouth in the vicinity of a joke.
