I stand on tippy-toes and ask "How big am I?"



Watch me as I stretch
and reach toward the sky.
Then I stand on tippy-toes
and ask "How big am I?"

You point and you say
"What it this?"
I say "It is my nose."
You point and I say "tummy,
"it's where my food all goes."

Then I say
"fingers," "ribs"
and "eyes"
and you say "Now show me
"your shoulders
  . . elbows
  . . ears . .  and arms."
Then I point to my knee.

Then you say "Bounce"
and you say "Bend."
Then you say
"Stand up straight again."
