Read together
Eyes that sparkle like the stars at night,
Teeth so white and shining, what a sight!
Knees that bend and legs that run so fast,
Feet that dance and never tire at last.
Legs that carry us where we want to go,
Belly that rumbles when it's time to grow.
Fingers that wiggle, hair that blows in the breeze,
Hands that hold and give us all we need.
Toes that wiggle, tickle, and play,
What a wonderful body we have each day!
So let's take care of ourselves, from head to toe,
And always be happy, wherever we go!
Talk about it
