Once upon a time, there was a group of body parts who lived in a human. One day, their leader, the head, called a meeting to discuss how they should all work together better.
Eyes said, "I can see everything!"
Toes boasted, "I can take us anywhere we want to go!"
Ears listened, "I can hear what's going on around us!"
Shoulders offered, "I can carry heavy things!"
Mouth suggested, "I can taste yummy food!"
Knees knelt, "I can bend so we can sit or run!"
Nose sniffed, "I can smell scents and warn us of danger!"
The head nodded, "Great! Now let's put all our talents together and have some fun!" And so they did, making silly faces and telling jokes, until they were laughing so hard, they couldn't stop.

And that's why we always use our eyes, toes, ears, shoulders, mouth, knees, nose, and head together!

Reflections

1. What did each body part say they could do?
2. How did the head bring all the body parts together?
3. What did they do to have fun?
4. What is the moral of this story?
