Human Anatomy Models

Description

The details on these models are amazing! They are scientifically accurate and would be a great visual reference to help you study different parts of the human body. These models can be viewed as cross sections or from the outside, and they each have detachable parts. There are 1 or 2 pieces on each model which are transparent, in order to give you the "inside view." Models vary from 6" for the torso, down to about 3.5" for other models. "Ein-O's I Know Guide" is included with each model, offering information, diagrams, and activity suggestions. Models come in a sturdy, plastic, storage container, and for the oddly-shaped models (eye and heart) a stand is included on which the model can be displayed.

Most of the models are preassembled. This is probably good, since there are no assembly instructions. Watch how you take them apart so that you can put them back together correctly! (I found it difficult to align some of the pieces when reassembling the models.) ~ Donna
