Title: Cutsie Anatomy or What in the World is That?

Organ Wise Guys

This is what they are teaching my children at school and frankly, I find this a little disturbing.  Body organs with personalities and hobbies.  Tennis playing lungs, a dancing muscle (I think), a running bone (with big lashy eyes and pouffy lips), a football playing heart and exercising organs.  However, what I find most odd is the four kids walking with the heart and the, um, what is that?  A pancreas? A section of small intestine?  Perhaps it's the end of the large intestines (If you know what I'm talking about.)

Is this what they are teaching my children?  What ever happened to simply learning anatomy without turning them into cutsie characters with smiling lips?  Disturbing.

So, so weird. Bizarre. And that thing taking a walk? At first glance you think it's a seahorse but then it looks like a part of the intestine. Gross. At least it's taking a walk and not doing what it really does...

That's not as bad as what I thought the running 'bone' was...
