It's made with wool, not formaldehyde and that weird, snappy blood vessel rubber, so this dissected frog is totally safe for the the kid's room.

Etsy artist CraftyHedgehog will knit you your own frog for $62, or you can buy the pattern for just $4 and knit it yourself [or hand it off to a knitter who owes you a big favor]. Then you can put it into a metal tray instead of a frame, too.
