Heads, Shoulders...
Subject: Physical Education
(This idea was contributed by Ken Maccarone)
Age Range: 5 to 7

Have the children stand in a large circle. Then ask the children if they know where their head is. After they all say yes, then repeat the step asking if they know where their shoulders knees and toes are.

After doing this and they are familar with the parts of the body begin to sing the song... Head shoulders knees and toes knees and toes... (as you sing the words they touch that part of their body). This is a great way to stretch out and this gives them an understanding of their body.
