Frida has recently become interested in anatomy. Not the parts of her body she can see…no that is old news…no she’s interested in what is inside her. This interest was sparked by a puzzle that she discovered at her new school. The first layer is clothes, then skin, then muscle, then organs and last the bones. What she has discovered through her constant questions is that all her friends have skin, muscle, organs and bones. Mommies and Daddies have skin,muscle, organs and bones, and yes Tigger, the cat, has muscles, organs and bones… oh and skin as well it’s just covered with all that fur. Now she starts to ask where the blood is and I’ve decided to try and find material for her curious mind. Perhaps this collection of books. Does blogland have any suggestions?
Update:
A friend of mine hooked me on this site which has short animated movies about the body.
Update Feb2008: Here is another great site for kids to learn about the body.
