TEDCO 4D Vision Frog Anatomy Model

This is such a cool model! love it!

My son's school sponsors a non-competitive, non-graded science fair where the kids can choose a topic that interests them and they research it. His topic was frogs. As a 4th grader, he has not yet been introduced to dissection so this was a great way to help him discover the insides of a frog. He had intended to build it for the science fair, but it was a little difficult as a puzzle to put together in the amount of time he had left himself. So, he decided to bring the parts in a box and lay them out for people to look at. It turned out to be a great icebreaker for him to start explaining what he had learned; he'd show the lungs, for example and explain that as a tadpole it started with gills. There was a good picture on the back of the box that listed the body parts, and a piece of paper that gave a brief explanation. For example, it explained that a frog's heart is different than a human heart in that it has only 3 chambers, not 4. The pieces are brightly colored and sturdy. It is a good product, particularly for what we used it for.

My 5 year old nephew recently visited and couldn't get enough of playing in the brook and catching frogs. I sent this gift to him after he went home and he LOVED, LOVED LOVED.

Love it

The reason it has 4 stars is because one of the clear pieces has a hard time staying on. But overall this is an awesome puzzle for kids to learn about anatomy and get interested in body functions!
