  I am made out of cells, water, and some fancy molecules that are only found in living things like proteins and DNA….
  
  I’m sure sugar and spice and all things nice come into it too!

  We are made out of star dust: before a star explodes, the heaviest element you can get is iron but we have heavier elements inside of us.
  
  So to get the really heavy elements, you need a star to go supernova and that leaves lots of bits that eventually make a planet (the Earth) around another, new star (the Sun). If you are lucky, you get life, human beings, and finally school children. So it goes from exploding stars to you!
