Behold Your Little Ones Lesson 10: I Will Take Care of My Body
Teaching Thoughts
These are a few bonus ideas- keep scrolling for more!
- Bring several items to practice taking care of our bodies- use the picture in the manual for ideas- brush, soccer ball, banana, soap, etc. Have everyone take turns using them and tell how what it does for the body.
- Have fun singing some Primary songs such as "Do As I'm Doing" and "Head, Shoulders, Knees, and Toes" with this lesson. It helps use the body in great ways! Look up all the Action Songs in the Primary Songbook.
