Sing “Old MacDonald” but replace the word “farm” with “body” and the word “animal” with the name of a body part. Have the children create a funny movement and/or sound to go with the body part. For example:


Old MacDonald had a body, E, I, E, I, O; And on that body he had a jaw, E, I, E, I, O.


With a wah, wah here and a wah, wah there; Here a wah, there a wah, everywhere a wah, wah;


Old MacDonald had a body, E, I, E, I, O. 


This could be done in large group.
