“My body” is usually the very first EVS topic children meet, often in Nursery or LKG, and it comes back every year with a little more detail. A good body parts worksheet for kids does not need to be fancy: a simple outline, a few labels and lots of pointing, wiggling and talking will teach more than a page of copying.

Quick answer: For ages 3 to 7, body parts practice works best in this order:
- Nursery: point to and name 6 to 8 parts (head, eyes, ears, nose, mouth, hands, legs, feet).
- LKG: 10 to 15 parts, with a simple “touch your …” game.
- UKG: label a body outline and match the five sense organs to what they do.
- Class 1: sense organs, how many of each part we have, and good habits for keeping the body clean.
Body parts name for kids in English and Hindi
Here are 26 common body parts, with Hindi names and how many we have. The “how many” column turns the list into a counting activity too.
| English | Hindi | Say it | How many? |
|---|---|---|---|
| head | सिर | sir | 1 |
| hair | बाल | baal | many |
| forehead | माथा | maatha | 1 |
| eye | आँख | aankh | 2 |
| eyebrow | भौंह | bhaunh | 2 |
| ear | कान | kaan | 2 |
| nose | नाक | naak | 1 |
| cheek | गाल | gaal | 2 |
| mouth | मुँह | munh | 1 |
| lip | होंठ | honth | 2 |
| tooth | दाँत | daant | 20 milk teeth |
| tongue | जीभ | jeebh | 1 |
| chin | ठोड़ी | thodi | 1 |
| neck | गर्दन | gardan | 1 |
| shoulder | कंधा | kandha | 2 |
| arm | बाँह | baanh | 2 |
| elbow | कोहनी | kohni | 2 |
| hand | हाथ | haath | 2 |
| finger | उँगली | ungli | 10 |
| thumb | अँगूठा | angootha | 2 |
| chest | छाती | chhaati | 1 |
| stomach | पेट | pet | 1 |
| back | पीठ | peeth | 1 |
| knee | घुटना | ghutna | 2 |
| leg | टाँग | taang | 2 |
| foot | पैर | pair | 2 |
Two notes. Children usually have 20 milk teeth, which are slowly replaced by permanent teeth from around age 6. And in everyday Hindi, पैर is often used for the whole leg as well as the foot, so do not worry if your child uses it for both.
Sense organs worksheet for Class 1: the five senses
Sense organs are the parts of the body that help us learn about the world around us. Children in UKG and Class 1 usually learn five.
| Sense organ | Hindi | Sense | We use it to |
|---|---|---|---|
| eyes | आँख | sight | see colours, shapes and things around us (देखना, dekhna) |
| ears | कान | hearing | hear voices, music and sounds (सुनना, sunna) |
| nose | नाक | smell | smell flowers, food and smoke (सूँघना, soonghna) |
| tongue | जीभ | taste | taste sweet, salty, sour and bitter food (चखना, chakhna) |
| skin | त्वचा | touch | feel hot, cold, soft, rough and pain (छूना, chhoona) |
Five senses walk
Take a ten-minute walk around the house, garden or school. At each stop ask: what can you see, hear, smell, touch? Back inside, let your child draw one thing for each sense. In the kitchen, a blindfold taste test with a little sugar, salt, lemon and karela juice is a memorable way to learn sweet, salty, sour and bitter. Always check for allergies first.
Sense organs: quick questions with answers
- Which organ helps us see? Eyes
- We smell a rose with our ____. Nose
- Which sense organ covers our whole body? Skin
- We hear the school bell with our ____. Ears
- How do we know a lemon is sour? We taste it with our tongue
Body parts worksheet for kids: activities to make at home
1. Life-size body outline (Nursery to UKG)
Lay your child on a large sheet of chart paper or joined newspaper and trace around them. Let them colour in their face, hair and clothes. Then stick on paper labels (head, arms, hands, knees, feet). Children are thrilled to see a body exactly their size.
2. Label the body (UKG and Class 1)
Draw a simple stick-figure or gingerbread-style body on A4 paper with eight arrows. Write the words in a box at the bottom: head, eye, ear, nose, mouth, hand, knee, foot. Your child copies each word at the end of the right arrow. For Class 1, add Hindi words in a second box.
3. Match the sense organ (UKG)
On the left, draw an eye, ear, nose, tongue and hand. On the right, draw a rainbow, a drum, a flower, an ice cream and a soft toy. Your child draws lines to match each organ to what it senses.
4. How many do I have? (LKG to Class 1)
List: nose, eyes, ears, mouth, hands, fingers, legs, toes. Children count on their own body and write the number. Answers: 1, 2, 2, 1, 2, 10, 2, 10. A gentle addition question for Class 1: how many fingers and toes altogether? (20)
5. Draw the missing part
Draw faces with one part missing (no nose, one eye, no mouth). Children spot and draw what is missing, then name it.
6. What am I? riddles
- I come in a pair and help you hear. (ears)
- I am inside your mouth and help you taste. (tongue)
- You have ten of me on your hands. (fingers)
- I bend in the middle of your leg. (knee)
- I sit on your face and help you smell. (nose)
Two action songs about the body
We wrote these two short songs for this post, so you can use them freely at home or in class. Chant them or make up a simple tune.
Head Up High
Head up high and touch the sky,
Wiggle your nose and blink one eye,
Clap your hands, one, two, three,
Bend down low and touch your knee,
Tap your shoulders, stamp your feet,
Now sit down and take your seat!
Hindi senses chant
आँख से देखो, कान से सुनो,
नाक से सूँघो, जीभ से चखो,
हाथ से छूकर सब कुछ जानो!
(aankh se dekho, kaan se suno, naak se soongho, jeebh se chakho, haath se chhookar sab kuchh jaano: see with your eyes, hear with your ears, smell with your nose, taste with your tongue, touch with your hand and learn about everything.)

Good habits for each body part
Body parts lessons are the natural place to talk about keeping clean and safe.
| Body part | Good habit |
|---|---|
| Teeth | Brush in the morning and before bed; rinse after sweets. |
| Hands | Wash with soap for about 20 seconds before eating and after using the toilet. |
| Nails | Keep them short and clean; do not bite them. |
| Eyes | Do not rub them with dirty hands; take breaks from screens. |
| Ears | Never put pencils, sticks or anything sharp inside. |
| Nose | Use a handkerchief; cover sneezes with your elbow. |
| Hair | Wash and comb regularly. |
| Skin | Bathe every day; wear clean clothes. |
For a full set of habit ideas and a reward chart, see our post on good habits for kids. This is also a good moment for a short, calm talk about body safety: some parts of the body are private, and children should always tell a trusted grown-up if anything makes them feel uncomfortable.
Level-wise expectations: Nursery to Class 1
Nursery worksheet on body parts
At 3 to 4, children learn body parts by pointing and moving. Expect them to name around 6 to 8 parts. Worksheets should be mostly colouring: colour the eyes, circle the nose, draw hair on a face. No writing is needed.
LKG worksheets body parts
At 4 to 5, children can name 10 to 15 parts and answer questions like “What do you use to hear?” Matching a picture of a part to a picture of an action (ear to drum) works well. Our LKG GK questions include more simple questions on the body.
UKG worksheet body parts
At 5 to 6, children can label a body outline with simple words, name the five sense organs and match them to the senses. See our guide to UKG EVS worksheets for the other topics that usually come alongside.
Class 1
At 6 to 7, children label diagrams, count parts, write short sentences (“I see with my eyes.”) and talk about keeping the body clean and healthy. Our EVS worksheets for Class 1 post covers the full year.
Topics and depth vary between schools, so pick what matches your child’s book.
