"The Parts of You and Me" | human anatomy for children | Little Blue Globe Band
"The Parts of You an Me" is an educational song and video that teaches toddlers, young kids, and non-native English speakers the names of different parts of the body and active verbs associated with them. For example, "to see" is linked to eyes, "to hear" is linked to ears, "to smell" to nose and so on. This synergistic approach to learning enables listeners to absorb several concepts at the same time.
SUGGESTED ACTIVITIES
You might want your youngsters to sit quietly and watch the video. That's a great approach that works for many people. Sometimes, however, it is also nice for kids to get actively involved. So you might ask the kids to stand up, dance to the beat, and point to each body part as the song goes also. At the main chorus part, where the lyrics read, "These are the parts of you and me," you might have the kids point to each other and then to themselves. This should work well for both small and large groups, such as one on one interaction and kindergarten classes.

Lyrics
THE PARTS OF YOU AND ME
(children's body parts song)
D--------------------------------
I see, see, with my eyes
--A---------------------------D----
I hear, hear, with my ears
D-------------------------------------
I smell, smell, with my nose
A-------------------------------------D----A---
'Cause that's how the body goes
D----------------------------------
I eat, eat, with my mouth
--A-----------------------------D----
I chew, chew, with my teeth
D--------------------------------------
I taste, taste, with my tongue
------A-------------------------D----
And that's just a lot of fun
G-----------D------ G-----------D------
Do do do do do Do do do do do
A------------------------------------------D---A
These are the parts of you and me
--D-----------------------------------
I clap, clap, with my hands
--A---------------------------D--------
I Snap, snap, with my fingers
D-------------------------------
I tap, tap, with my feet
A---------------------------------D-----A----
And try hard to keep the beat
--D--------------------------------
I walk, walk, with my legs
--A---------------------D-----
I Lift, lift, with my arms
D------------------------------------
I bend, bend, with my knees
------A----------------------------D------
And touch the ground if I please
G-----------D------ G-----------D------
Do do do do do Do do do do do
A------------------------------------------D----D7
These are the parts of you and me
G----------------------------D---------------------------
And with my elbows, I can bend my arms
G------------------------------A------------------------------
And if I bend my arms, I can touch my head
D------------------------------------
I think, think, with my head
--A---------------------------------------
I feel, feel, with my whole body
---D------------------------------------
I wish, wish, with all my heart
A----------------------------------------------D------
That you would sing along from the start
A----------------------------------------------D-------
That you would sing along from the start
A--------------------------------------D----A----D
Let's take it again from the start!
