Body Parts Chart

Charts for growing vocabulary

The set includes clear charts for common body parts, face parts, the five senses and parts children use during everyday actions. Large labels and friendly illustrations give younger children a simple way to point, repeat and remember. Older children can read the words, match labels to pictures, and use the charts when writing short sentences. The range suits Nursery, LKG, UKG and early primary learners. Choose one chart at a time for a young child, or keep a few together as a small reference set for Class 1 and Class 2.

Simple ways to use the charts

Place a chart near your child's study table and name three parts during a short daily talk. Play Simon Says by asking your child to touch a named body part, then let your child give the instructions. In class, display a chart during circle time, point to a part and invite children to say the word together. You can cover a label with a small piece of paper for a recall game, or ask children to draw a person and label the parts they know. Link the activity with an Alphabet Chart when practising the first letter of words such as arm, ear and eye.

Helping children use the words correctly

Children sometimes point to the whole hand when you ask for a finger, or call the lower leg a foot. Show the smaller part clearly and compare it with the larger area around it. Some children also mix up left and right, so practise from your child's own point of view rather than correcting quickly. Use natural moments, such as washing hands, putting on socks or brushing teeth, to repeat the right word. Keep the language simple and accept pointing first. Then encourage your child to say the word when ready.
