This is a model of a human heart and the various veins and arteries connected to it. The color-coded blood vessels indicate
which vessel is carrying oxygenated blood, and which is carrying deoxygenated blood. This model can be used as a teaching device when learning about the heart, the veins and arteries that connect to it, and the direction and oxygen content of blood flow to and from it. The fleece fabric used creates a softer, more tactile learning experience than compared to the more typical hard plastic model. ~May Griffin
