There's A Monster On My......

This week for Large Group we worked learning our body parts and understanding prepositions with a Monster Game.  We used some monster finger puppets and took turns choosing what part of our bodies we wanted to put the monster on.  When we chose the body part, we would sing the following song to the tune of Farmer In The Dell....

There's a monster on my nose, a monster on my nose.

Yes there is, oh yes there is a monster on my nose.

We incorporated prepositions into this activity by putting the monster under an arm, behind our back, in our hand, next to our ear, in front of our eyes, over our head etc...

We put the monster on our eyes, nose, next to our side, on our chin, our neck, our elbow, ankle and wrist.  We talked about a lot of body parts that we knew and some that we didn't know.  

You can do this at home by asking your child to show you their pointer finger and then have them put their finger on different body parts and sing the song too.
