I've looked into various desk top models but DD really wants something like this:

She wants all the bones numbered and she wants there to be a corresponding chart. I haven't found anything like that thus far and I have a feeling that even if I could find one, it'd be way out of our price range. I think most models need to be assembled at major joins but they aren't fully disarticulated.

So, I talked her into asking Santa for an anatomy model rather than a skeleton model. It went on sale yesterday so this would have to do until we can upgrade:

A new obsession of DD is the DragonBox. She is freaking me out since she seems to know more algebra/math than the app is teaching her.

She might really like an anatomy coloring book if her fine motor can do it. They are meant for college students but are really just diagrams to color.

We are in a rescue, mazes, and cutting with scissors phase right now. ...And just phenomenal explosion of pretend play. The imagination really bloomed after he turned 3.
