3D Human Body Anatomy Model(Half&Fully Transparent) for Kids 8-12, Skeleton Model Kids, Children Plastic DIY Skeleton Toy, Skeleton Model Kids, Educational Science Kit, Removable Parts

The package is a bit more daunting than the photo implied to me. The model comes entirely unassembled, on a sprue tree like an airplane model. I guess I expected (for no real reason) that it would come assembled or partially assembled.The kids are having fun putting it together though (and taking it apart again). I'm not letting them see the instructions. I am helping them with the shell which seem like more fragile plastic than the rest of it. My oldest has studied anatomy in his class, and they've got a torso model but these pieces are a lot smaller and it's not as obvious where everything goes, so he had to figure it out with some knowledge and some trial and error. I think it's been a great experience.The younger child really likes looking at the skeleton inside the body and removing pieces and then putting them back. Sometimes he pretends that this is a patient that needs medical care.I wish there was a little ring stand like what people use for dolls so it can stand up without fear of being knocked over onto the floor.I think the age range in the title (8-12) is perfect. The age in the product info further down (3-6) is definitely too young.Overall though I'm happy with this, it's turned out to be more interactive than I expected.

Great for science class. Hands on.

Aside from that, the rest of it is rather nice. It fits together well and is fairly well-priced considering that many models are more expensive than that. BUT... it's really a bit frustrating that it did not come with some sort of storage solution - a cheap vinyl bag would have been fine. But no. Nothing. Nada. Zilch. Zip. Zero.Mine is now in a clear plastic zip bag. Not very nice-looking, to be honest.The pamphlet about "The Human Body" that comes with this set quite simple, not a ton of information in there but if you're putting together the body in theory you're also working with other materials. Don't depend on this material alone, in my opinion. It's printed on nice paper, though. :)I am going to be sure that whatever I do, I do not drop the glass guy. He may shatter on my tile floors. So just be careful with him, and he will serve his purpose - be on display as a source of informational discussion for your kids/classroom. Enjoy! :)

So before even assembling the skeleton, you have to pull the clear acrylic body apart. It wasn’t easy and in my struggle, a foot was lost….Its a shame too because it really is a great learning tool. It was pretty easy to assemble, the instructions weren’t that great, but you could work your way through it. I wish it was more puzzle-like. As in you could assemble and re-assemble it many times. This seems to be a once assembled, it’s done kind of thing…..bummer!

I got this for my daughter to use as a teaching aid at her shcool.This item includes a plastic skeleton with the individual parts still attached to mold trees, an assortment of internal organs and an instruction manual.The individual parts are not brittle and assembly is relatively straightforward. The instruction manual contains basic information but not a great amount of detail.Once assembled and in its fairly sturdy clear "shell", the figure may be inspected and handled without worry of any damage. I did not perform a "drop" test.Two of our grandchildren (1st graders) thought it was fascinating and it generated a question and answer session. My daughter, a school teacher, is going to use it at her school.This will be a very good educational tool that, with proper care, will last a long time.Recommended.
