A friendly child figure builds up one part at a time, with each part named on the right and joined to it by a line. The heart beats and pumps blood out to the head, hands and feet, the muscles bulge and move the body, one arm lifts a ball up high and the legs jump, before a recap highlights each part with its job tag (pumps blood, move, lift, jump).
