My 8-year old daughter enjoys looking at this placemat and asking questions about the human body while she eats. She tends to eat slower when she's looking at the mat, but she's easily distracted while eating and at least she's looking at something educational. The placemat shows basic body systems: circulatory, muscular (front and back views), skeletal, respiratory and digestive. It does not show the nervous system, lymph system or reproductive system and for some reason the bladder is missing. I can't recall what system that's supposed to be in - maybe digestive, but the kidneys show in the circulatory system so maybe that's where it belongs. The diagram figures are of a man but the genitals are left off. It also has diagrams for the five senses - hearing, smell, sight, touch, and taste. I don't believe the taste one is current because it still shows zones and I read recently where scientists have found taste receptors for the different tastes throughout the tongue and not just in the zones indicated.The back of the placemat is similar to the front but without labels so kids can test their knowledge using watercolor markers or washable crayons. We haven't tried that yet to see how well it erases. The back also adds a detailed diagram of the heart with labels.
This placemat would not be good if a child has squeamish parents who have trouble talking about bodily functions while eating. Otherwise, it's a nice starter for educational conversations at the dinner table.
