Need help- Anatomy resources?

[Tamsyn]

Help!  My kids may be brilliant, but I'm not!  I have never been very good at anatomy.  So what does my oldest take a keen interest in?  Anatomy.  We have a fantastic anatomy book that we got him, and now he is asking me questions that I can't answer.  I struggle just pronouncing some of the stuff.   He knows everything about anatomy that I know, and probably more.  My husband has been a big help, but I'm hoping that I can pick some brains to find out what your favorite resources are.

Up to now we have watched all of the magic school bus videos on the subject, and several YouTube videos with 3D pictures.  We have made a life-size poster with the organs.  We've also checked out a lot of books on the subject from the library.  He is 5.

Right now the kids and I are watching this amazing series on youtube called "Inside Nature's Giants."  We learned about the human anatomy a couple of months ago, and now we are learning about animals.  In this series you will get to see awesome dissections of some fantastic animals like elephants, giraffes, pythons, hippos, sharks and whales.  Warning:  They do introduce evolutionary concepts so if you find that offensive to any religious beliefs this might not be the show for you, but I will tell you that its such a great view on anatomy that its worth watching anyway.

Oh, oh, oh!
PETER WEATHERALL can teach my kid all day long!

Just be prepared for them to use VERY precise language and descriptions at THE most inopportune and embarrassing moments for mom

Still, I would always rather be embarrassed because my child knows terminology/function that  most adults either don't, or don't find polite, than by a ridiculous euphemism that actually describes the same thing!

It's OK Keri, her son already learnt "anus" already from magic school bus! 
Oh Corkers I love that dissection show! Did you see the giant squid? Absolutely fascinating. My kids like it. Some they find too confronting so I check the animal out first then OK or not according to that.
Tamsyn, have you found the anatomy colouring in books on amazon? Those are great. Very informative too. Read the reviews to give you an idea of the level for each one. http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=Anatomy+coloring+in+book
Also I posted a very interactive body "stripping" link a few months back. You can quite literally remove one layer at a time on a rather real looking computer animated person. Very cool! Kept us busy for ages!  I shall hunt for the link again....Here it is
http://bodybrowser.googlelabs.com/ check it out! Not google chrome friendly apparently.
Also my daughter enjoys little platic body part puzzles. We have a human eye, a pregnant uterus, and a digestive system. They are 3D and I got them for under $10 each at our Aldi supermarket. Something like these http://www.amazon.com/Learning-Resources-LER3336-Human-Anatomy/dp/B0012OELR6

Thank you, everyone!  Perfect advice.  I let him stay up and watch the giraffe dissection after the other kids were asleep, and he thought it was really cool. 

Haha, ya, he knows "anus" and "rectum".    We're in the process of watching all the Weatherfall samples right now, it looks like great stuff!  And I forgot about the anatomy coloring book!

Yes, I knew this group was the right place to go.  Thank you.
