Simplify

Extend
When looking for the face pictures, chat about each body part. Here are some examples: Why is it important for a mouth to open? What if your nose only had one nostril, could it still smell? Why is it so important to protect our eyes? Could you think of another place on your body to put your ears? What are the parts of a hand?
QUESTIONS FOR CHILD

If your body developed an odor or a bad smell, how would you get rid of the smell?
