- 1). Trace the outline of your students' bodies on large sheets of butcher paper or bulletin board paper and cut out the outlines. Have the children point to various body parts as you call them out and let the children color their own cut-out.
- 2). Sing and act out songs such as, "Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes," and "The Hokey Pokey."
- 3). Play a "freeze" game in which the children move around the room as music plays. When you stop the music, call out a body part. The students must touch that body part to the ground in a frozen pose.
- 4). Give your students paper plates, yarn, kid scissors, markers, crayons and glue. Have them decorate the plates to look like their own faces.
- 5). Distribute undecorated gingerbread cookies in the shape of "people" to your students. Given them icing and sprinkles and tell them to draw various body parts onto the gingerbread shapes.
