Making use of over 200 lush illustrations by the terrifically talented artist and designer Kelli Anderson, a new app by Tinybop lets kids explore their bones, organs, and bodily systems through all manner of pokes and prods. *Image: Tinybop*

As Raul Gutierrez, Tinybop's founder puts it, “non-repeatable interactions are really important in terms of keeping kids engaged.” *Image: Tinybop* In other words, tapping an on-screen button to summon a fart is fun the first few times; hearing your swipes transformed into toots of all different pitches and timbres is endlessly enjoyable.

And if that makes parents a little nervous, Tinybop's got 'em covered: it provides a 22-page guidebook for answering kids' queries and directing their play through the app. *Image: Tinybop*
