They allow me to hear music and the voices of my friends.”: Smile and point to your mouth. “This is my mouth. I use it to talk, eat, and laugh!”: Raise your hands and say, “These are my hands. They help me create, play, and express myself.”: Place a hand on your chest and say, “This is my heart. It beats to keep me alive and feeling.”: Stand tall and point to your legs. “These are my legs.
