We use our eyes to see shapes, sizes, and colors of things around us. For example, we see that an apple is red and round.

We use our ears to listen to different sounds in our environment. We can hear a loud truck or a soft whisper.

We use our nose to smell pleasant scents and bad odors. Fresh flowers smell sweet, while rubbish smells stinky.

We use our tongue to taste different types of food. Food can taste sweet like chocolate, sour like a lemon, or salty like chips.

We use our skin to feel how things touch our body. We can tell if an object is soft like a teddy bear, hard like a rock, hot, or cold.
