What are Body Parts? by https://padlet.com/kwilson0830/a9g86kqzuu4t Toddlers Learning about Body Parts By: Karyn Wilson en-us 2017-04-06 14:18:33 UTC 2024-05-18 07:34:55 UTC hello@padlet.com Teaching Body Parts to Toddlers kwilson0830 https://padlet.com/kwilson0830/a9g86kqzuu4t/wish/165151319 *  Start with body parts far from each other.  Include ones that the toddler can see.
*  To make it fun, turn it into a game.  Get excited when pointing out the body parts.
*  Have the child point to the body part on their bodies.
*  Practice, practice, practice.  There is nothing wrong with having to repeat yourself so the child understands.
* Only do a few body parts at a time. Too much can confuse the child. Once the child has the body parts on, slowly add on more.

LET’S MEASURE
Let’s measure from our head
Right down to our toes.
Let’s measure our arms,
Let’s measure our nose.
Let’s measure our legs,
Our waist, and all.
Let’s measure to see
If we have grown tall.

I HAVE A LITTLE BODY
I have a little body (Point to self)
That belongs to me.
I have two ears to hear with (Point to ears)
And two eyes to see.  (Point to eyes)

I have a nose for smelling. (Point to nose)
 I have a mouth to eat.  (Point to mouth)
 I have two hands to wave
 At everyone I meet!  (Wave Hands)

Head And Shoulder
Head and shoulders, knees and toes,
 Knees and toes, knees and toes,
 Head and shoulders, knees and toes,
 Eyes, ears, mouth and nose.

Ankles, elbows, feet and seat, feet and seat,
 Ankles, elbows, feet and seat, feet and seat,
 And hair and hips and chin and cheeks,
 Ankles, elbows, feet and seat, feet and seat.
