Dissect-it: Frog

 Paul and my husband, Rob, did the frog dissection with Dissect-it!  When the kit arrived, both of them heaved a sigh of relief that it wasn’t a real frog to dissect.  The frog kit has two refills for the synthetic goo which supports the skeleton and organs.  I bought and used the Smithsonian Synthetic Frog Lab with a Biology class to prep for the dissection, which came with one refill of the synthetic goo.  I have no idea where to buy more of the goo.  Gelatin does not work and makes a mess.  Paul made a few sketches and identified the skeleton and organs.  It’s a decent model of a frog.  It even has vomerine teeth.  Take a look at the photos.  I recommend the kit and instructions for an elementary aged child who is reluctant to dissect.  Take a look.
