Your child used to be a tiny baby. Now they can walk, talk, climb and help. Bodies grow taller, hands and feet get bigger, and we learn to do new things. Growing happens slowly, so we don't notice it every day, but it's always happening.

We're ending body week with a snack that looks right back at you! Your child makes a plate of silly "eyeballs" from banana slices and blueberries, then plays peek-a-boo with them before gobbling them up.

Stacking cups are one of the best toys ever made, and today they become a counting tower. Your child lines up cups or rings from smallest to biggest, then stacks them, counting each one on until the tower reaches ten.

A group of kids play and move all through the book. Along the way, it explains how bones, muscles, the heart, lungs and brain all work together when we move. It ends by encouraging kids to keep their busy bodies moving every day.

The girl starts with the outside, her skin, then moves inside to her bones, muscles, heart, lungs, brain and tummy. Each page explains in a sentence or two what that part does, like how her heart pumps blood and her lungs breathe in air. The cheerful pictures show each part in a way that's clear, no

Our bodies are busy all day: running, thinking, playing and growing. Food is like fuel that gives us energy, and water helps every part of our body do its job. When we feel hungry or thirsty, that's our body telling us it needs more.

Where are we going, and what should we wear? Today your little one gets a simple paper person and dresses them for different places: somewhere snowy, rainy, hot or sunny. It connects the weather, the places we go and how clothes help protect our bodies.

Our brains do a LOT of work, and today's snack is a fun way to talk about it. The Brainy Yogurt Bowl is creamy yogurt your child tops with colorful fruit and a little crunch. They get to design it themselves, which is a thinking job too!

A boy walks us through his five senses: seeing, hearing, smelling, tasting and touching. For each one he shows what he notices with that part of his body, like seeing the moon, hearing a dog bark or touching a kitten. Near the end, he shows how he often uses more than one sense at a time.

Today we're learning C. For toddlers the goal isn't writing it. It's hearing the /k/ sound at the start of words like cat, cup and car, and connecting it to the curvy shape of C. (C sometimes says /s/, like in "circle," but /k/ is the one to start with.)

It's Letter C day, so snack time is a plate full of foods that start with the /k/ sound, like carrot. Your little one hears the sound again and again, crunches their way through it, and builds a big C out of snacks before eating it.

Matching socks is a real-life job, and today it becomes a letter game. You lay out letter cards face up in pairs. Your child hunts for the two that match, then "folds" them together like a pair of socks and puts them in the laundry basket.

If you want a book that gets your kids giggling and naming body parts, this is it. I Ain't Gonna Paint No More! by Karen Beaumont, illustrated by David Catrow, is sung to the tune of "It Ain't Gonna Rain No More," and it's impossible to read without singing.

This week is all about our amazing bodies, so we're starting with a snack your little one can "flex" about. The Muscle Smoothie is a thick, fruity blend of banana, yogurt and berries. Your child adds everything to the blender, you press the button, and then everybody makes their strongest muscle pos

We met 1 and then 2. Today we add one more and get 3. Three is everywhere: three meals a day, three wheels on a tricycle, and "ready, set, go!" has three parts too.

Your hands are built-in measuring tools! Today your little one becomes a body scientist. They find out how many "hand spans" long everyday things are, then compare their hand to yours.
