Build a Body

Have you ever dreamt of having a spare body lying about so you fool your parents and trick your friends? Unfortunately, science hasn't quite advanced that far yet, but you can build a virtual body and learn about all of your body systems and organs and how they all work together to form a cohesive whole that lets you be, well, you!

Parents of younger children who haven't quite gotten around to The Talk have the option of setting up their children to learn about all body systems minus the reproduction system. (Though, if you're looking for a way to introduce your child to the 'birds and the bees,' Build-A-Body's non-graphic medical diagrams might be a good place to start.)

You will need to register for an account to use this resource, but it's free and it only takes a few moments. It'll also allow you to explore many of the site's other free resources.

Build-A-Body is a virtual interactive that allows students to place organs, bones, and connective tissues in their proper places while learning about the function of each part and body system.
