Body Parts Game

Hi Everyone. Does anyone have a �body parts� game that I can play with a class of very small kids without it getting out of control. (they can�t read or write yet) They do �head and shoulders� already so wanted some kind of game to go with it for a nice lesson. Any ideas????
Luv Yeti. (With no time as usual) |

I use an old nursery rhyme tune - W-h-e-r-e is my _____ _____ ? W-h-e-r-e is your _____ _____ ? (Go up a note) Here it is! Here it is! Isn�t this so fun - ny, Isn�t this so fun - ny. (go down a note) Here�s my _______. Here�s my _______.
Does this help? try playing with the tune - im not very good at the whole musical thing - I just use it.
Of course you must point to me and then to you. The kids sing along with it after a very short time.
I also use this song for Where is Barney - the tune seems to work as long as you double up each line with the same number of syllables. I hide barney under letters of the alphabet or on things, under things etc.
Hope it helps.

Hi Irina. Have you played that with lots of kids at the same time? Is it possible? Maybe I can make a bigger one.
I wish there were more hours in the day. Take care. xx |
