There are a lot of reasons to do dissection with kids, but there are some conditions that make either your kids or yourself cannot do dissection. You should not worry about that. As long as you are connected to the internet, there are a lot of resources that you can use as alternatives to the dissection activity. They are available either for free or you might need to pay.

The virtual dissection resources are available in the forms of software, animation, journal, worksheets, and images. You might also use them for supplementing your real dissection experience.

There are also some power point presentation to show more detail and clear clarrification of parts of the body that you can enjoy with kids.

Today I would like to share 40 alternative resources for dissection with kids. I hope you can use the resources to get the learning more fun.
