Singular and Plural

Many parts of the face come in pairs, so we use the plural. Most words just add an s:

eyeeyes
earears
cheekcheeks
eyebroweyebrows
liplips
toothteeth

Watch out: the plural of tooth is teeth, not “tooths”. It’s a special plural your child learns as it is.

Steps for Teaching at Home

  1. In front of a mirror: your child stands at the mirror while you point to each part of their face and say its name.
  2. The basic words first: start with eyes, ears, nose, mouth and hair.
  3. Then the rest: add two new words a day, like teeth and chin.
  4. Ask: point to a part and ask: What’s this? They answer: It’s my nose.

Activities for Home

  1. Touch your nose: give an instruction like Touch your nose! or Touch your ears! and your child touches the part quickly. Then swap roles.
  2. Draw the face: your child draws a big circle, then you say: Draw two eyes. Then Draw a nose. until the face is complete.
  3. A song: the well-known children’s song Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes includes eyes, ears, mouth and nose, pointing to each part.
