Anyone who knows my little son knows that he has wanted to be a Dr. for as long as he can remember. He is always wanting books on the Human Body and loves reading about surgeries and looking at all of those “yucky” pictures as my youngest describes. As a Mom, I am always encouraging him to follow his dreams and am interested in providing him with any opportunities I can to encourage him in his pursuit of being a Dr. be it through books, trips to the Health Museum or through toys.
I was so excited when I discovered the Smart Anatomy toy by Oregon Scientific for ages 5+.
The company says that “...this helps kids learn about the body’s complex systems with more than 600 sounds and information and 150 touchpoints that can be discovered with a talking Smart Pen.” My little guy could not wait to open up this toy and check it out.
Our Smart Anatomy model is called Alex and he comes with the model, a Wireless Smart Pen, Poster, Booklet and a User Manual. There is also another face label to make this either a girl or a boy depending on your little one which is something that I really like as a Mom.
How to play: Take your smart pen and touch any part of the human body to learn more about it.
You can also play games and take little mini quizzes to see how much knowledge you have. I absolutely love this toy because it’s so interactive which holds their attention and my little guy needed almost no supervision or help to play with Alex which gave me time to get dinner on the table…such a winner. I highly recommend this toy because it’s educational, interactive and requires minimal adult help.
