Parts of the body

From head to toe,

But for the sake of rhyme

And pronunciation practice

This time they are not in order.

On your head is your hair

You can wear your hair long

Or you can wear your hair short

your eyes, nose and lips

And at the side

to help you hear.

You hear with your ears,

You see with your eyes,

You smell with your nose

And kiss with your lips.

Your lips are about one metre

- shake your hips!

And your nose is nearly two metres

from your big toe

if you grow full-size.

And don't forget your eyes

- they're about one metre

from your thighs.

And your lovely white teeth

- about two metres from your dainty feet!

Let's add them together:

Two lips and two hips,

One nose, two big toes,

Two eyes and two thighs,

Lots of lovely white teeth

And two dainty feet

That's well over thirty body parts, I suppose!

Add on fingers, two thumbs,

And every other toe.

That's well over sixty, as far as I know!

Your breast is the upper part

Between your chest and your legs

is your abdomen.

At the front is your tum

- short for tummy

At the rear is your bum

- short for bottom!

Between your bum and your tum

Are your thighs - roughly speaking.

Joints are formed where two bones meet

Your upper and lower arms are joined at your elbows

Your upper and lower legs are joined at you knees

Your wrists join your hands to your arms

And your ankles your feet to your legs.

Your bones are covered by flesh, blood and skin.

And it's the skin that holds it all in.

Your organs are all inside - don't let them escape.

They're all very busy - fully awake.

We'll touch them in order.

Get as close as you can:

· brain: make me think

· lungs: breathe in and breathe out

· heart: I can feel you beating

· stomach: I can hear you rumbling when I'm hungry

· bladder: I'll empty you when you're full

We sometimes say that we are only flesh and blood

And made up of feelings which we cannot touch.
