My, What Big Teeth You Have!
They made this big mouth for dental schools, but we think it would make a lovely addition to any decorating scheme. Measures 6-1/2" wide x 3-7/8" tall x 5-3/8" deep, with steel hinges. In addition to a full set of chompers, it has a giant (but soft) pink tongue. Comes with an 8-1/2" long toothbrush for instructional purposes, we suppose, or maybe just to keep it clean, and an 8-1/2" x 11" chart of the upper and lower jaws.

Magic Rocks
Geology for those with short attention spans? The original Magic Rocks®, of course! Mix the solution in a jar of water, drop in the pebbles, and watch them grow into a forest of multi-color stalagmites. Growth starts in 10 minutes, is impressive in 30 minutes, and complete (up to 4" tall) in 2 hours. Extra credit if you can make it grow stalactites by gluing the pebbles to the bottom of a jar, then pouring the solution in and turning it upside down. Who knows? Maybe it will work. Comes with a set of marine decals to decorate the jar. Definitely not for use with living fish. For ages 10 and up.

Leonardo Rides Again
WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD-Small Parts. Not for children under 3 yrs.
Now you can re-create two of Leonardo Da Vinci's most prescient vehicles. You get everything you need to build small scale models of either his self-propelled cart or paddlewheel boat. The cart was driven by bent-wood spring tension and featured a gearing system and programmable steering. His was wood; yours is wood-like plastic, approx 6" square x 3-1/4" tall with all the right moving parts. The paddleboat was pedaled (making it a pedal-paddle boat) and your model will be approx 7-1/2" long x 2-3/4" wide x 1-1/2" tall. Both kits include a 16-page booklet with good instructions plus an overview of the maestro's life. For ages 8 and up.

Bone Up On Anatomy
You're not going to blow money on an actual human skeleton, are you? Consider that for a tenth of the price you can get an anatomically accurate skeleton done in plastic. This model is male (judging by the hips) and has many articulated joints-jaw, shoulder, knee, etc. Its small size (33") makes it practical for classroom use, since it can be passed around the room. Other nice touches include discrete neck vertebrae, a sectioned skull, and very little "flash" from the plastic molds. It also comes with a metal display stand, weighted at the bottom to prevent spills. Yes, some concessions had to be made because of the size and price, but this is still an invaluable teaching tool, and quite a nice decoration for those with morbid minds.

The Original Embeds
WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD-Small Parts. Not for children under 3 yrs.
You'll really dig these terra cotta Chinese soldiers, replicas of the standing statuary army of Qin Shi Huang, China's first emperor, made in approx 210 BCE and discovered in 1974 in Xi'an. You get a 6-3/4" x 3-1/4" x 1" thick block of earth-colored plaster and a small brush and wooden chisel for your own archeological excavation. Pick from the figures below, or the bonus pack of all (5). (Note: there were 8,000 statues found at Xi'an, so a real archeology buff would order 1,600 of the 5-packs.)

Bright Box Of Rocks
Straight from the hand of Nature, and Scott Resources, comes this boxed collection of (15) 1" to 1-1/2" fluorescent mineral specimens, such as hackmanite, turritella agate, aragonite, travertine, willemite, resinous coal, selenite gypsum, fluorite, calcite, scapolite var. Wernerite and fossil algae. All are very interesting, and a few colors really pop under ordinary blacklight -- but we have to admit that today's fluorescent paints and laser shows have spoiled us for the more subtle glow of a rock. Buy these for their educational value, not their dramatic display.

Love This Lizard!
You want to touch these life-size, beautifully detailed, 3 lb lizards, don’t you? The Jumbo Monitor Lizard, found in Africa, Asia and Australia, is now is available here. He has cream-to-brown coloring and a flexible forked tongue, and is 41” long when his tail is uncurled. The Green Iguana, 3 ft long from nose to tail, takes only 2 ft of branch (or shelf) space, since his tail also has a natural looking curl. We’ve seen these guys being sold for food in Central America, and you couldn’t tell this one from the real thing--except that theirs are Blue Iguanas. Being concerned about the environment, we always prefer green.
