ABSTRACT:
The invention is an improved anatomical doll that has a clear tummy and back that swivel open to reveal either removable or non-removable organs. The removable organs are held in place by indentations in the abdomen of the doll, whereas each of the non-removable organs has an individual recess that allows the non-removable organ to be hidden further within the abdomen. An alternative embodiment of the invention is to provide a doll with missing limbs and corresponding prosthetic limbs. The primary benefit of the improved anatomical dolls is to provide a means to educate small children about the human anatomy, especially children that need an upcoming surgical procedure explained to them.
